Tory leaders have ditched plans to house asylum seekers at a closed RAF base in Yorkshire.
In a plan unveiled by Priti Patel and Boris Johnson, the Home Office claimed in April that it would “shortly open a new, bespoke, asylum reception centre in Linton-on-Ouse”.
Up to 1,500 men were due to be housed there under the scheme, which was detailed as part of the bid to send asylum seekers to Rwanda.
