Linton upon Ouse

The plans for the centre on a former RAF station were opposed by villagers and the local council.

Home Office plans to turn an ex-RAF site into a centre for up to 1,500 men were scrapped in August.

Opposition to an asylum centre in North Yorkshire has created "a sense of community", villagers say.

Plans to turn the site at Linton-on-Ouse into a centre for up to 1,500 men were announced in April.

The Home Office asks for an extension for a formal reply to Hambleton council over asylum plans.

Kevin Hollinrake says plans to house 1,500 men near a North Yorkshire village is "absolutely wrong".

A senior civil servant says ministers have not finalised plans for former RAF Linton-on-Ouse.

Opposition to plans for an asylum centre in Linton-on-Ouse is not about immigration, an MP says.
