Asylum seekers to continue living at Epping hotel after council appeal rejected
A hotel in Epping, Essex will continue to house asylum seekers after the council lost a Court of Appeal bid to challenge the High Court ruling, dismissing its attempt to stop the hotel's use.
The council tried to appeal against the November decision not to grant an injunction blocking the hotel’s owner, Somani Hotels, from accommodating asylum seekers at the Bell Hotel.
The site played host to frequent, almost weekly protests last summer, as Epping residents gathered in huge numbers to voice concerns against the use of the hotel.
