The United Kingdom prides itself as the mother of modern democracy. At least from Kenya’s perspective everything about our democracy since independence is based on the British system. Even our Parliament is a replica of the West Minster.
The Speaker of the Kenya’s Parliament apes the Speaker of the House of Commons with a roaring thunder of, Order! Order! when things threaten to get out of hand. However, I sometimes wonder, is United Kingdom really the democracy it claims to be? The former colonial motherland of Kenya actually has no constitution.
