Today, more councils across England say they could take legal action, after the High Court issued a temporary injunction to stop the government from housing asylum seekers at The Bell Hotel in Epping. Anti‑migrant protests and counter‑protests have been taking place in Epping throughout the summer after an asylum seeker living at the hotel was charged with sexual assault. Adam is joined by Dominic Casciani, the BBC’s home affairs correspondent, and Joe Pike, political correspondent, to discuss the fallout from the ruling, the response from Reform and Conservative politicians, and what it means for the government’s ability to house asylum seekers.
