Asylum Seeker Hotel Protests Sweep UK After Epping Forest Ruling

Anti-immigration protests spread across the UK as far-right groups target hotels housing asylum seekers. A High Court decision backing Epping Forest’s bid to close one such site sparked similar legal moves elsewhere. Demonstrations remained mostly non-violent but tense, with counter-protesters outnumbered in many towns. The government says it will overhaul the asylum appeals system while the Home Office fights new injunctions.
