Hundreds of furious residents have taken to the streets to protest against government plans to move hundreds of lone male asylum seekers into an army training camp.
The Home Office intends to transfer around 600 migrants to the military site in Crowborough, East Sussex by the end of next month – a move locals say has been forced on the community with virtually no consultation.
The mounting anger follows revelations that cadets based at the camp could be removed to make way for the arrivals.
A fantastic turnout by patriots to show Crowborough does not want 600 young potentially dangerous men being shoved into this town without local consultation by a Govt that hates the UK & has lost complete control of our women’s & young girl’s safety & security @_AdvanceUK… pic.twitter.com/1FXR8YyAa3
