Jenrick Offers Councils Legal Help for Asylum Hotel Battles – Guido Fawkes

WATCH: Jenrick Offers Councils Legal Help for Asylum Hotel Battles

Jenrick says he’s starting a new “movement” called “Lawyers for Borders.” Epping has opened the floodgates for attempts to stop asylum hotels in the courts…

In his latest walk-and-talk Jenrick says Tory and Reform councils should follow Epping’s precedent:

“Every patriotic council, whether Conservative, Reform, whatever, should follow Epping’s lead and seek an injunction. And if you are a council or a community group and you need our help, contact my office. If you’re a lawyer and you want to join the fight, contact me. Let’s create a new movement, Lawyers for Borders… We need to put as much pressure as possible on Keir Starmer to change the law, to deport every single illegal migrant who’s here, and to close all the hotels.”

Injunctions are hard fought for in the courts and granted on sometimes highly technical grounds. The Home Office will be sharpening its legal claws as we speak…
