The Attorney General Suella Braverman made the comments amid fury in Conservative circles that judges at the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) last week granted an injunction which thwarted plans to send asylum seekers to Rwanda.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson yesterday insisted the Government is "very confident" that its plans are lawful and pledged to "pursue the policy".
He described the ECHR's actions as a "weird last-minute hiccup we had with Strasbourg" but there is pressure to ensure it cannot happen again.
Ms Braverman said: "This is still a topic being discussed in government but I have significant reservations about our relationship with the European Court of Human Rights.
"In the EU referendum the British people voted to take back control of our laws.
"They are rightly baffled why our immigration controls can still be blocked by European judges.
"It's time to complete Brexit and let the British people decide who can and cannot stay in our country." Home Secretary Priti Patel believes the ECHR's decision was "politically motivated".
She said: "I'm of the view that it is, absolutely. The opaque way this court has operated is absolutely scandalous."
In the latest bid to ensure that the UK has control of its own criminal justice and immigration policies, Justice Secretary and Deputy PM Dominic Raab is expected to unveil a "British Bill of Rights" very shortly which will make it easier to deport foreign criminals.
