Скачать или смотреть EPISODE 1: What UK Law Actually Is (And Isn't)

Most people think UK law is a set of clear rules designed to deliver justice. In reality, it's a decision-making system built to manage uncertainty, conflict, and institutional risk at scale.

In this episode, I explain:
• Why UK law values stability over perfect justice
• The three-layer system nobody talks about (formal rules, administrative implementation, practical reality)
• How discretion is the hidden engine of the entire legal system
• Why process often beats substance
• What competent people understand that others miss

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
1. UK law isn't one system - it's multiple overlapping systems operating simultaneously
2. Most legal power is exercised administratively, not judicially
3. Discretion isn't a bug - it's a deliberate design feature
4. The system prioritizes finality over perfection
5. Understanding how decisions are made is more important than knowing the rules

RESOURCES MENTIONED:
• Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 (private prosecutions)
• Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (planning obligations example)
• Crown Prosecution Service Full Code Test
