6:30Now PlayingConservative councillor, Holly Whitbread, says, the government's reaction to appeal against the migrant hotel ruling is "deeply disappointing."
She adds: "our main objection is the fact that they are all males within this location and we've had alleged sexual assault, alleged arson and local people don't feel safe."
The government is seeking to intervene after Epping Forest District Council won an interim injunction to stop migrants from being housed at the Bell Hotel, following widespread protests.
