Counter Terror police have said that they believe the firebomb attack on an immigration centre in Dover last Sunday was ‘motivated by a terrorist ideology.’
The incident led to a rapid increase in the number of people being held at the Manston processing centre in Kent.
Today a union representing Border Force staff said it would be joining a legal action against the home secretary over conditions at Manston.
Meanwhile in central London thousands joined a cost of living protest to demand a general election.
