Suella Braverman 'ignored legal advice' that the government was breaking the law by keeping migrants for weeks in overcrowded, disease-ridden processing centres
The recently reinstated home secretary was told at least three weeks ago that migrants were being kept in overcrowded centres in Manston, in Kent, for unlawful lengths of time, the Sunday Times reported, citing five sources.
A government source said: “The government is likely to be JR’d [judicially reviewed] and it’s likely that all of them would be granted asylum, so it’s going to achieve the exact opposite of what she wants."These people could also launch a class action against us and cost the taxpayer millions.” Enver Solomon, the chief executive of the Refugee Council, said the problems were evidence of the government failing to prepare.
A government source said: “When they get there, people are supposed to be processed and then released. They have their biometrics taken and should be sent to accommodation paid for by the Home Office, which means a hotel, or they are granted immigration bail.“
