Dicey identified that ultimately "the electorate are politically sovereign," and Parliament is legally sovereign . Barendt argues that the greater political party discipline in the House of Commons that has evolved since Dicey's era, and the reduction in checks on governmental power, has led to an excessively powerful government that is not legally constrained by the observance of fundamental rights .
