Since July, the manifestations against immigration have multiplied in the United Kingdom in front of the hotels used to house asylum seekers. They risk continuing, while the British Ministry of Interior announced on Friday, August 22, appealing a judicial decision on Friday 22 that ordered an establishment located in Epping, north of London, leaves temporarily to organize this hearing.
In mid -August, the local municipality had appealed to this purpose, that the Superior Court of Justice validated on Tuesday. This is a thorn in the foot of the Keir Starmer’s labor government because it has the legal obligation to provide accommodation to asylum seekers, while examining their file.
The initial success of the appeal creates a precedent and could push other cities in the country to try to suspend the accommodation of asylum applicants in the hotels.
On Friday, the Secretary of State for Security, Dan Jarvis, announced, therefore, the Government would appeal this decision, while migrants have until September 12 to leave Epping.
“We have promised to close all hotels for asylum seekers, but we must do it in an organized and controlled way,” he told the press.
The migrant housing policy in the hotels had been established under conservatives. Keir Starmer undertakes to stop to use this type of accommodation, considered too expensive, by 2029.
The extreme right does not take off
Along the same lines, Interior Minister Yvette Cooper said Friday that the ministers were working to close the hotels organized asylum applicants “as quickly as possible”, but as part of an “orderly” program.
“The Ministry called in this case, to ensure that in the future, the closure of all hotels can be carried out properly throughout the country, without creating problems for other local regions and advice,” he said.
The chosen nationalist Nigel Farage in particular asked the British to demonstrate around the hotels who welcome asylum seekers.
“Ask the following question: What side is this government on? Is it on its side or on the side of undocumented young people who come to Great Britain, of which too many, frankly, attack our young women?” He asked the supporters of his party, Reforma United Kingdom.
According to The Guardian, activists from the homeland of the extreme right party, a dissident dissident organization of online patriotic alternative groups to try to help the movement against immigration during similar manifestations.
This weekend, actions of this type are planned in around twenty cities of the kingdom, as well as against the contrademants backed by the Association of Racism Resistance.
32,000 asylum seekers at home in hotels
Homeland activity in these events is identifiable in several Facebook groups, underlines British media.
One of them, Nuneaton says no, is led by five people, including Adam Clegg and Andrew Piper, who were summoned by times as Homeland members. In addition, another administrator, Matt Alexander, published photos on the social network during a visit to the German Alps in the Eagle Nid, built by the Nazis near the second house of Adolf Hitler.
Currently, more than 32,000 asylum applicants live in these hotels according to the data revealed Thursday by the Ministry of Interior, an 8% increase in the first year in the power of the Labor Party. However, these figures remain far from those of the 2023 peak, when the conservatives were in power.
