An elderly English couple was shocked to receive a letter from their county’s council ordering them to sell their home to house migrants.
The North Northamptonshire Council sent a strongly-worded letter to Jose and Ted Saunders in January claiming their £200,000 home could be subject to compulsory purchase from the government to be used to house young migrant men.
“I couldn’t believe it,” said retired carer Jose, 76. “We moved to Rushden to help provide childcare for my grand-daughter and found this nice little place to live.”
“What on earth is the council doing forcing people to sell their houses – and even an empty house is owned by someone – so that asylum seekers can live in them?” she asked.
“The answer to this is to stop them coming in the first place, not to force people out of their homes.”
