Well, Parliament can always overturn Common Law.
Common Law is - certainly in its origin - just people asking judges to settle disputes. It just solidifies to stone as in "this is what seems right".
And then if it seems appropriate Parliament can come along, pass Statute Law, and toss the whole Common Law structure into the bin.
Although if the Judges think it unfair they can gut the Statute - it does happen ...
Cheers,
