SUMMARY:The fight for the ECHR: What is at stake?
DESCRIPTION:Now\, the people responsible for Brexit want to remove the UK from the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR)\, the international court set up in the aftermath of the Second World War to protect people from tyranny. \nSince the UK became a member of the ECHR\, the court has intervened 466 times to uphold human rights against the government. \nWe are calling on Rishi Sunak to commit to our membership of the European Court of Human Rights because it is the last line of defence of our rights and freedoms. To support this mission\, we launched the petition to keep the UK in the ECHR. \nTo discuss this vital issue\, we have brought together three of the leading experts on the ECHR:\nDominic Grieve KC PC – Dominic is a British barrister and former politician. Today\, Dominic is Vice President of European Movement UK (Source: Wiki). \nJessica Simor KC – Jessica is recognised as one of the country’s leading specialists in public/regulatory\, EU and human rights law. (Source: Matrix Chambers). \nAndrew Cutting – Andrew is Spokesperson and Media Officer at the Council of Europe\, a role he has held for almost 14 years. (Source: LinkedIn).

Since the Brexit referendum\, he has concentrated on strengthening democratic governance in Europe. Garvan chairs the pro-democracy NGO Unhack Democracy\, which works on strengthening civil society in East Central Europe\, and is a Director of Communications at the European Policy Centre\, as well as a research associate on defence policy at the Wilfried Martens Centre for European Studies and an affiliate at the Central European University Democracy Institute.
