Responding to Kemi Badenoch’s speech on the ECHR, Elliot Keck, head of campaigns of the TaxPayers' Alliance, said:
“Taxpayers will find it encouraging that leading politicians are waking up to the way in which the quangocracy at home and abroad is acting as a barrier to democratic decision making.
“Vast bureaucratic overreach has neutered the power of elected politicians, a point that the leader of the opposition clearly grasps.
“Politicians of all parties need to recognise that reining in unaccountable pen pushers is in their interests and in the interests of democracy.”
