ADDRESSED TO: LEADER OF ESSEX COUNTY COUNCIL COUNCILLOR KEVIN BENTLEY

There has been widespread outrage that the Home Office has placed illegal immigrants in a luxury apartment complex in city of Chelmsford, Essex.

Locals have said it is 'grossly unfair' to house illegal immigrants in plush apartments while hundreds of local families were stuck in temporary and sub-standard accommodation.

The multi-million pound conversion of a former office block was billed as one of Chelmsford's most sought after residential complexes.

Yet working-age men who travel through peaceful countries, leaving their women and children behind, and who entered the UK illegally, have been pushed to the front of the queue and placed in this luxury apartment block.

This is treason of the highest order and a slap in the face for the people of Britain.

Britain First has launched an urgent petition to pressure Essex County Council leader Cllr Kevin Bentley to intervene and put local people first, before illegal immigrants.
