Abstract

London has been, historically, the unchallenged cultural, political, and legal centre of power in the UK. Yet, despite its dominance, it was unable to dominate the processes associated with the UK’s departure from the EU. In this short comment, I argue that the inability of the city to dominate the not-city—the term I adopt to describe everywhere in the UK that is not part of the city as described here—can, and should, be seen in Rule of Law positive terms.
