    Yes, the UK is an exception. Most countries have a codified constitution.

        A moment ago you didn’t know that most countries have constitutions. Now you know all about judicial review?

          What are you talking about?

          Context is everything. OP wrote this:

          the kind of power top courts have in other countries.

          And I responded that in those other countries, the constitution doesn’t exist or is not the supreme law of the land.

            Which is it? Most countries don’t have a constitution, or most have judicial review?

              Most countries have a constitution that acts as a supreme law and have judicial review.

              As the OP suggested some countries don’t have judicial review, but they either have no constitution or it is not the supreme law.
