Summary
The government is pushing to house asylum seekers in former military barracks across the UK, including in quiet villages like Linton-on-Ouse and Barnham, potentially tripling their populations. Residents, already wary after a similar plan was scrapped four years ago, are staging protests over plummeting property values, safety concerns, and lack of local infrastructure. While officials argue barracks are a better alternative to hotels, locals demand proper consultation and question the suitability of these sites, as tensions rise and community meetings continue.
