Maybe point this out next time you see a Brit bragging about how they don't need a constitution.

Did she die in vain?

Just a bit of paper saying the king can't take all the stuff he wants off the barons.
As recent times have shown, magna carta offers sod all protection to the average plebe when the government goes rogue.

WHAT !!!!!!
Britain has a constitution. It began in 1215 and continued to be added to over time.
en.wikipedia.org...
Unlike in most countries, no official attempt has been made to codify such arrangements into a single document, thus it is known as an uncodified constitution. This enables the constitution to be easily changed as no provisions are formally entrenched.

Magna Carta is only one part of the framework of The Constitution. The major foundation is The English Bill Of Rights 1688
