Scampton residents worried about their future after High Court blow

Scampton residents have told how they want to leave the village as the Home Office's migrant camp plans move closer.The Home Office is free to continue preparations at RAF Scampton while more challenges are heard, with asylum seekers allowed to move onto the site from Monday, July 3.Tracey Fyfe, 62, expressed her concern over the safety of her two children and stated that she is keen to move away from the village following the news.

"I'm not against migrants, but I think it should be sorted out at the source rather than trying to find accommodation for them across the country.Some residents also questioned why the base was chosen for such accommodation. "I think the refugee policy isn't a bad idea in itself because there needs to be a place to house these people," he said.

"But, as I said, I think there is a lot of overreaction based on the worst-case scenario, and I think a lot of that could come from people trying to claim that it's all fighting-age people coming here. It's fear-mongering."
