Interesting article on where the balance of political power should lie between an elected Parliament and an appointed judiciary. Yes it's from the Mail... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-13452295/DANIEL-HANNAN-Human-rights-lawyers-demanding-arrest-Israels-elected-leader-short-tyranny.html ...but I have always thought the judges' role was to check that Parliament derived laws were enacted as MPs intended and not to challenge the basis of the law itself. If not, then let's elect them too ! |
