Hotels Close Asylum Seekers Move to Bigger Sites | Nottingham News

from Nottingham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The Britannia Hotel in Nottingham, which housed asylum seekers for over six years, is shutting down — part of a government push to stop using hotels altogether and save £51 million by relocating people to larger, cheaper military-style sites. While officials call it a fix for a broken system, grassroots supporters warn these new facilities could be even harsher, treating vulnerable individuals as numbers rather than people needing care. With over 160 hotels still in use nationwide, this move signals a major shift — but at what cost to human dignity?
