The Home Office has been accused of breaching a high court order that halts the eviction of asylum seekers during the pandemic lockdown, the Guardian has learned.
During the first lockdown in March, eviction of refused asylum seekers from Home Office accommodation was paused for public health reasons to protect both asylum seekers and the general public from Covid-19.
