This is an extremely disappointing decision.

Yvette Cooper used taxpayer money - your money - to keep open a hotel housing illegal migrants.

The Government’s lawyers argued accommodating illegal migrants was in the “national interest”.

In court they said the right of illegal migrants to free hotels is more important than the rights of the British people.

Well, they are not.

The British Government should always put the interests of the British people first. Starmer’s Government has shown itself to be on the side of illegal migrants who have broken into our county.

But this is not a free pass for asylum hotels. Councils can and should still act to close hotels. If they don’t, residents will rightly ask, on whose side are they?

My team and @LawForBorders will continue to provide legal assistance to help protect communities.

There is no acceptable accommodation for illegal migrants. The Government should be prioritising Brits in need and deporting every illegal migrant, as the last Government should have done and I've argued for years.
