Suella Braverman to criticize Rishi Sunak over ECHR stance

Braverman accuses Sunak of lacking 'political will'

Suella Braverman will assert that Rishi Sunak lacks the determination to withdraw Britain from the European Court of Human Rights in a fiery speech in Brussels. She will argue for ditching the euro court despite growing pressure from Tory backbenchers.

Warnings of lacking groundwork and authenticity

Braverman will caution that the UK Government has not laid the groundwork to challenge the ECHR, making recent discussions on the matter seem insincere. She will emphasize the risks of including ECHR withdrawal plans in a losing Conservative Party election manifesto.

Pressure mounts on PM to commit to leaving ECHR

Pressure has been mounting on the Prime Minister from Tory backbenchers to include a commitment to quitting the ECHR in the party's election manifesto. This comes after Sunak's recent comments on the importance of border security over foreign court membership.

National Conservatism conference and political tensions

Braverman is set to speak at the National Conservatism conference alongside Nigel Farage and Hungarian PM Viktor Orban. The event aims to strengthen national conservatism principles ahead of EU parliamentary elections, facing political pressure which forced a last-minute venue change.
