The ECHR, which was established in 1950, sets out the rights and freedoms people are entitled to in the 46 signatory countries and is a central part of UK human rights law.However, Badenoch said it had become a "sword used to attack democratic decisions" and to halt attempts to deport illegal migrants and foreign criminals.
The Tory leader said she now believed the UK "will likely need to leave" the ECHR "because I am yet to see a clear and coherent way to fix this within our current legal structures".But she said she would not commit to this without "a clear plan" and "a full understanding of all the consequences".The commission is due to report back at the Conservative Party's annual conference in the autumn.
If the commission concludes it is not necessary to leave the ECHR to achieve her aims, including controlling immigration and removing foreign criminals from the UK, Badenoch suggested she would abide by this."If there is a way to fix that without leaving the ECHR.... then that's great because my objection is not about the ECHR so much as it is the problems we're trying to solve," she said.
Whether to leave the ECHR has been a divisive issue for the Conservative Party.
During last year's leadership contest Badenoch argued leaving the treaty would not be a "silver bullet" for tackling immigration, while her rival Robert Jenrick, now shadow justice secretary, said the party would "die" unless it left."The current environment is simply too dynamic from which to plan results with a reasonable assurance of success," Skechers' chief operating officer, David Weinberg, told investors in a post-earnings call.
