CAMPAIGNERS have warned of a series of planned anti-refugee protests outside hotels this weekend as they called on ministers to provide safe community-based housing for asylum-seekers.
The Hope Not Hate charity said that it had identified five demos targeting accommodation housing asylum-seekers over the coming days, including in Rotherham, Liverpool, Aldershot and Erskine, in Scotland.
The charity described the number of protests as “deeply concerning” and warned that harmful rhetoric by politicians and the media is “emboldening the far right.”
