Home Office to appeal decision to move asylum seekers

The Home Office will appeal the High Court's refusal to allow it to intervene in the case of a hotel used to house asylum seekers in Epping, but says it remains committed to ultimately closing the hotel.

Home Office Minister Dan Jarvis said they are "clearing up the mess of the previous government" but it needs to be done in an "ordered and managed fashion".
