Speakers: John Dyson, Dinah Rose, Philippe Sands, Joshua Rozenberg
Do judges use the power of the state for the good of the nation? Or do they create new laws in line with their personal views? When newspapers reported a court ruling on Brexit, senior judges were shocked to see themselves condemned as enemies of the people. But, faced with dreadful legal and moral dilemmas, judges cannot avoid hard choices. Our panel, former Justice of the UK Supreme Court and Master of the Rolls John Dyson, Barrister Dinah Rose, Philippe Sands, Professor of Laws and Director of the Centre on International Courts and Tribunals at UCL discuss, chaired by author and Britain’s best-known commentator on the law, Joshua Rozenberg.
