WATCH: Barrister fumes at Sentencing Council for 'anti-democratic' guidelines
The guidelines, which set sentences below the crucial 12-month threshold for automatic deportation, have sparked controversy
Barrister and writer Steven Barrett has launched a scathing attack on the Sentencing Council, questioning "who on earth are they" to overrule Parliament's decisions on immigration offences.
Speaking to GB News, Barrett blasted the body as "anti-democratic" over new guidelines that could allow hundreds of illegal immigrants to avoid deportation.
