Any chance of covering *overwhelmingly important* HC cases outside of your constitutional law bailiwick? e.g. Ah Yick v Lemert, Briginshaw v Briginshaw, House v King, Project Blue Sky, Weissensteiner/Azzopardi, M (1994), Pfennig, etc? I like your channel greatly in any event, but I think five minute summaries of some the most influential cases treated in a very general sense would be useful, entertaining, and attract a wider viewership.

Which Constitution are you reading from? the 1900 one with 8 amendments is the ONLY one you should be quoting from, others have been re-written and laws changed WITHOUT a public referendum!

There is no other constitution
