West Suffolk Council has unanimously opposed the Home Office proposal to house up to 1,250 single adult male asylum seekers at RAF Barnham. In this video, I break down the full council meeting, featuring residents, parish representatives and councillors explaining why they believe the site is unsuitable.
From concerns over infrastructure, policing, public services and consultation, to questions about healthcare funding and the impact on a village of just 584 residents, this meeting revealed why opposition crossed political party lines.
Rather than relying on media headlines, you'll hear directly from those who spoke at the meeting, alongside my analysis of the key moments.
Whatever your view on immigration or asylum policy, this debate raises important questions about local democracy, planning, transparency and whether communities should have a greater voice in decisions that directly affect them.
Watch the full analysis and let me know your thoughts in the comments.
