"we were told that it is important to know first principles- the examiner doesnt think its enough to know the answer of the question unless you can explain to him how it came about going back to the first principles and how this has developed through the courts to what it stands at today"
I'm really not sure about that, and I'd certainly watch how this could lead you into giving the impression you are writing "all you know" about a particular point when the answer is far more knife edged.
