The Colonial Constitution Quotes

“It was an extraordinarily long document, written in large part in dense, legal jargon. An ordinary citizen could neither make sense of large parts of it nor was it likely to be of much interest to them. It may have captured some of the demands of the freedom movement in terms of rights but had chosen not to channel its spirit of questioning the fundamentals of colonial rule: a large, all-powerful state with an overriding Union government.”
