Protesters clashed with police outside the hotel in Essex last week, after a man living there was charged with sexual assault.

The Home Office has rubbished rumours that a luxury hotel in Canary Wharf is being used to house asylum seekers from a hotel in Epping, Essex which was targeted by violent protesters earlier this month, reports MyLondon.

A town on the outskirts of London was rocked by protesters who descended on a hotel housing asylum seekers for the second time in four days on Sunday night amid anger about a migrant accused of sexual assault.
