'It's not the right site!' Suffolk resident fears for her safety as RAF Barnham earmarked to house asylum seekers

A Suffolk resident has declared that RAF Barnham is "not the right site" to house 1,250 asylum seekers as locals continue to protest against the Government's decision.

Speaking to GB News, local resident and business owner Steph Donaldson expressed concern for the safety of herself and her family, who live close by.

She said: "I don't think it's appropriate. I think there was a lack of consultation which has caused uproar to begin with, but it's not the right site to have this.

"There has been no communication at all until it was actually put out there. We were told initially by somebody locally and were not listened to, we tried to consult, and there has just been no answers given.

"It's going to impact my businesses, which are directly opposite here. But more than that, my family live opposite. I've got two small children and there are real safety concerns."
