Jobs are at risk
A four star hotel just eight miles from Nottingham city centre has been taken over by the Home Office to house asylum seekers, according to reports. Local jobs are at risks as a result of the move.
In the letter, which has been seen by Nottinghamshire Live's sister publication Derbyshire Live, staff at the Long Eaton hotel were informed: "The board of directors have made the decision to contract the hotel for the purpose of government use only. This means the Home Office have exclusive use of the hotel effective from October 19.
The Home Office did not deny the new arrangement, but a spokesperson said the department does not comment on operational arrangements for individual sites used for asylum accommodation.
