Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

One hundred years after the passage of the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act, Britain is undergoing a major constitutional reassessment. The Blair government’s constitutional reform programme has transformed Britain’s political landscape, and in remarkably short order. This article runs through the changes one by one, assessing their significance, and wherever possible drawing parallels with the Australian experience. The article notes how closely Britain marches in step with Australia (as well as Canada and New Zealand), but in constitutional matters the United Kingdom has fallen behind. The dramatic changes of the last four years can be viewed as a process of rapid catching up. Britain has more to learn constitutionally from the former Dominions than to impart.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
