Boris urged against ‘dangerous step to dictatorship’ in Brexit revenge on UK judges – Daily Express

A new "Interpretation Bill" is rumoured to be in the pipeline from the Prime Minister, giving ministers the opportunity to effectively throw out any rulings they disagree with. The bill has been written up in the hope that it would be introduced annually. ButExpress.co.ukreaders have warned the Prime Minister to be cautious in his approach to this new bill.

Robert Ward wrote: Yes the judges were an absolute disgrace in their thwarting of Brexit.

Those judges should be removed.

Yes laws regarding future referendums (if we have any more that is) should be beefed up so judges cant attempt to alter the democratic will of the people on a technicality.

But this? NO.

This is a very dangerous step towards dictatorship.

Government Ministers should not be allowed to do this.

And god help us if they do.

If you don't like the way Parliament runs the country then change your voting habits.

Parliament is best placed to determine what it intended.

Ladynotforturning wrote: Bravo - when it comes to politics the judiciary should not have ultimate power as that belongs to the electorate that voted in the ruling party.

In this case Brexit was voted for and should not have been obstructed.

Judges cannot make a judgement without bias as has been demonstrated.

Attorney General Suella Braverman hinted at the possibility of this new bill being introduced in a speech to the Public Law Project Conference.

She said: "What we have seen is a huge increase in political litigation that is to say, litigation seeking to use the court system, and judicial review, to achieve political ends."

She added: "If we keep asking judges to answer inherently political questions, we are ignoring the single most important decision-maker in our system: the British people."
