This can only lead to the type of violence as we have seen in Liverpool recently, and an increase in racist attacks.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;That is why Wigan Trades Council is opposed to the anti-refugee activities being organised by Coun O&#8217;Bern: activities based on lies, and intended to polarise the community; sowing bitterness and hatred and attracting members of the far right and neo-fascists.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Coun O&#8217;Bern replied: &#8216;More lies and propaganda from the far left extremists.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;They need to get down to Wigan market and support the real Wigan traders whose plight they have noticeably ignored, instead of posting this nonsense and insinuating the decent people of Wigan are Nazis.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The Victorian country house hotel is a wedding venue, has a swimming pool, spa and fine dining.<\/p>\n<p>It is set in ten acres of land and overlooks local beauty spot Worthington Lakes.<\/p>\n<p>It is thought some staff have been let go and weddings, anniversaries and celebrations have been cancelled because of the imminent migrant arrivals.<\/p>\n<p>Set against the cost of living crisis, many villagers have expressed their resignations that a valuable community asset is being taken from the area and questioned how their small settlement will cope.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/01\/16\/74912339-12469425-image-a-41_1693580607597.jpg\" height=\"399\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Villagers have expressed their resignations that a valuable community asset is being taken from the area<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/01\/16\/74912323-12469425-image-a-40_1693580598084.jpg\" height=\"678\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Father-of-two Eric Lowe (pictured) beIieves the hotel is &#8216;the wrong place to house migrants.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to MailOnline, father-of-two Eric Lowe, 82, said: &#8216;It&#8217;s the wrong place to house migrants.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;There&#8217;s nothing for them to do here and there&#8217;s very few amenities.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It is very isolated and very few buses.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;They&#8217;ll be bored.

&#8216;Hospitality businesses continue to face well-publicised challenges caused by the pandemic and cost of living crisis and, as a result, we have taken the decision to temporarily close our Kilhey Court Hotel and Spa to the public on September 9th.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;The building will then be fully handed over to Serco, which provides much-needed housing and support for asylum seekers in communities across the UK.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;This has been a carefully planned decision and we will continue to liaise with our team and guests over the coming weeks.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>A Home Office spokesperson said: &#8216;The Home Office has a statutory obligation to provide accommodation for asylum seekers who would otherwise be destitute while we consider their claim.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;The significant increase in illegal, unnecessary and dangerous Channel crossings has put our asylum system under incredible strain and made it necessary to continue to use hotels to accommodate some asylum seekers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;This is why we will be using alternative accommodation options, such as barges, which are more manageable for communities, as our European neighbours are doing.
