Lord Neuberger has launched an attack on Theresa May for criticising judges over their failure to deport foreign criminals.
Lord Neuberger said the Home Secretary’s strongly-worded criticism of
immigration judges was “inappropriate, unhelpful and wrong”.
Neither ministers nor judges benefited and the attack last month, which
singled out some judges for ignoring rules designed to enable more foreign
criminals to be deported, were inherently unfair as judges could not fight
back.
Lord Neuberger, who took over as president of the highest court in the land
last October, also warned that such public attacks risked “destabilising”
the delicate balance between Parliament and the judiciary.
Mrs May said the failure of judges to take new rules into account meant she
would bring in new laws to stop them allowing foreign rapists and violent
criminals to stay in Britain by claiming a right to a family life.
Asked about Mrs May’s attack, Lord Neuberger, president of the Supreme Court,
said: “I’m concerned about it because I think it’s inappropriate and
unhelpful for ministers to attack individual judges or groups of judges.
