WATCH: Suffolk councillor blasts Labour 'failure' as locals protest use of RAF Barnham to house migrants

"I am saying now, if this site opens, we will not be able to guarantee the safety of the public and that is a failure from the state.

"It's outside the community of Barnham, which is about 600 people, meaning that when they move over 1,200 migrants here, that will double the size of the village.

"The village doesn't have any shops, no amenities, so what's going to happen is these undocumented men are either going to have to walk up the road to Thetford, or they're going to be bussed into the local area, meaning that you're going to have people who we don't know their history, don't know their background coming around our communities.

"And this is a real public safety issue. They should not be here in the first place, but we definitely do not want them in Suffolk."
