Actually, this isn't technically true of the USA. Unfortunately, the President, Congress, and Supreme Court have all decided that the Constitution doesn't matter anymore.
As for the UK, I once wrote a piece on the "tyranny of Parliament". Unfortunately, I have no means of publishing this piece to anywhere worthwhile. But, if you're interested (I'm not particularly bothered if you're not) here's a link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Xg-HnCiHgTV1PIimi0CC8nq2uV_bav2KRUfqAAAjKpk/edit
