    Bunch of Nimbys!

    https://www.thenational.scot/news/23...eekers-hotels/

    ANOTHER council is taking legal action to prevent the UK Government from using a hotel to house asylum seekers, with its leader branding the Home Office “irresponsible”.

    Fenland District Council said the Rose and Crown Hotel in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, suddenly closed to the public on Friday afternoon.

    TWO councils in similar situations to Warrington have lost bids for High Court injunctions to prevent hotels from housing asylum seekers.

    East Riding of Yorkshire Council asked the High Court to continue an interim injunction preventing migrants being accommodated at the Humber View Hotel in Hull, which was granted after it was contacted by the Home Office with a proposal to use the site.

    Ipswich Borough Council also asked for the extension of an interim injunction to stop further asylum seekers being placed at the four-star Novotel hotel in Ipswich city centre, where 72 people were already being housed.
    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
