She has called for the Government to release a 'clear timetable'
An MP has called for the Government to release a "clear timetable" for when two hotels near Nottinghamshire will stop being used to house asylum seekers. Around 400 people have been staying at the Novotel and Best Western hotels on Bostocks Lane in Long Eaton.
This strategy will free up some of the hotels currently being used, with locations in Essex, East Sussex and Lincolnshire being the first to be used. Significant concerns have been raised over the Lincolnshire location, with the former home of the Red Arrows being used.But in terms of ending the current plans, one Conservative MP has now called for a commitment on when hotels will be freed up again.
"Over 400 asylum seekers have been housed in two neighbouring hotels on Bostocks Lane, in Erewash. This has put an enormous strain on local services. A protest against the housing of asylum seekers in the Long Eaton Novotel took place in February. However, those opposing them were far outnumbered by a counter-demonstration of people supporting the rights of asylum seekers.
