On one hand, the constitutional case was inarguable, and yet the grumbling regarding the launch three years ago of The Supreme Court still lingers to some extent, as we note in this week's In Depth. I'm not sure that's justified.
Dicey-admiring conservatives arguing against reform have always had rather too much fondness about constitutional arrangements that look bizarre from a distance but rub along fine.
The world moves on. And even aside from presentational niceties, it's become clear that there has been a real value to the creation of a progressive, accessible and transparent court.
