31.08.2025 โข The day of migrant policy confrontations
โจThe UK's migration debate intensified throughout the day, following the previous day's Epping ruling. Early reports highlighted ongoing angry protests outside asylum hotels and increased political rhetoric, with ministers warning against Reform's "whipping up anger" and the party's deputy leader challenging critics. By mid-day, attention broadened to the judiciary, as a judge in a migrant hotel case faced allegations of leftist bias, while Labour ministers affirmed asylum seekers' rights, prompting Farage to accuse the government of prioritizing migrants. The day culminated in escalating confrontations: a police officer was assaulted at an anti-asylum protest, and later, anti-migrant protesters were pepper-sprayed during clashes with police in a London shopping centre. Labour leader Keir Starmer responded by criticizing Farage's "scaremongering" tactics.
