I'm not sure it is entirely undemocratic. The EU is a institution of various parts. Not all parts can interfere in the same way. I'm not totally versed in the details, but I think in this story would be related to Britain making laws that break the European convention on human rights (echr) that Britain agreed to abide by in a fully democratic way following our system of parliament. The European court of justice (ecj) is then the high court responsible for ensuring that countries stick to the agreements they have agreed to stick to. Which we didn't. So they are enforcing that we do. Now I don't think that's undemocratic. We (as a country) democratically signed a convention, and then future governments failed to uphold that. The ecj stepping in is exactly right. Like I say, not an expert, but just how I understand it.
