GB News was interrupted for breaking news as Martin Daubney announced migrants being housed in a hotel in Essex are being removed. Epping Forest District Council has obtained a temporary High Court injunction preventing asylum seekers from being accommodated at The Bell Hotel in Epping, Essex. The judge had previously rejected Home Secretary Yvette Cooper's last-minute attempt to halt their removal. The presenter said: "A seismic, significant victory for the residents of Epping. A terrible day for the Home Office. A terrible day for the owners of The Bell Hotel, Somani Hotels Limited, who've been giving no rights to appeal."

Joined by Dr Shoaib Khan, Daubney added: "And dare I say it, Mr Khan, a terrible day for human rights lawyers like yourself." Khan appeared confused by remark as he responded: "It seems the court made a decision so I'm not sure why it's a terrible day for human rights. I would assume the judge considered human rights, considered the law, and made the proper decision."

He claimed that the injunction shows the government "doesn't always get it right".

The lawyer added: "There are situations where the government isn't listening to people, is not making the right decisions, and the court has to step in."

Dabuney revealed hundreds of people across the country have contacted GB News to say they're "fed up" of being told that British people don't have the right to deport foreign criminals.

The presenter continued: "They're sick of their country being a dumping ground and yet, there's still the law."

Two asylum seekers residing at the hotel have been charged with sexual assault. One man has been charged with three counts of sexual assault, one count of inciting a girl to engage in sexual activity, and one count of harassment without violence.

A second has also been charged with allegedly sexually assaulting a man aged over 16, as well as a number of assault charges.

Epping Forest District Council argued The Bell Hotel had become a "breeding ground for unrest" following several violent protests that led to multiple arrests and injuries to police officers in recent weeks.

Kemi Badenoch described the injunction as "a victory for the mums and dads I spoke to in Epping who just want their children to be safe".

Chris Whitbread, the leader of Epping Forest District Council, insisted this is "not the end of the matter" and said the council's next plan is to seek a permanent injunction.

He added: "Today we have made a step towards redressing the imbalance and showing that local people do have some say, whatever the Home Office thinks."
