The Prime Minister has been told to hold an “emergency Cabinet meeting” as the Conservatives are demanding answers as to where to the migrants from the Bell Hotel in Epping will end up.
This comes after Epping Forest Council won a High Court injunction to have the migrants removed from the Bell Hotel no later than 12 September.
The Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp wrote a letter to the Home Secretary Yvette Cooper placing pressure on the Home Office to start deporting illegal immigrants.

Philp said, “Given this crisis unfolding on your watch and the concern about where the Epping migrants will go, will you: Hold an emergency Cabinet meeting to establish plans for the deportation of all illegal immigrants upon arrival and to resolve the migrant crisis you have created.
Philp also demanded that government “commits that none of the illegal immigrants currently in the Bell Hotel will be moved into hotels, HMOs, apartments and social housing, which are much needed for British people.
The previous Government established alternative accommodation on current or former military sites and an accommodation barge, which are all alternative options while deportation plans are put in place.
Labour is housing 32,000 asylum seekers across 210 hotels and Sir Keir Starmer has pledged that he will close the migrant hotels by 2029.
