Anti-migrant protests continue at Canary Wharf

from The Standard

Anti-migrant protests have continued to erupt this week. The Met Police have responded to a second consecutive night of anti-migrant protests outside the Britannia International Hotel in Canary Wharf, following confirmation that asylum seekers will be accommodated there. Meanwhile, Epping Forest District Council has asked for the immediate and permanent closure of two local asylum hotels, citing a series of “serious incidents” in the area. To unpack these protests and how authorities are reacting, we speak to The Standard’s Chief Political Correspondent, Rachael Burford.In part two, we reflect on the life and legacy of a rock icon, Ozzy Osbourne. Ozzy passed away on Tuesday morning, surrounded by family at home. The Standard’s celebrity correspondent, Lisa McLoughlin, joins us to look back at the remarkable career of the Prince of Darkness.
