(adjacent, long). The arrivals market resolves on a Home Office statement on GOV.UK or two of BBC, Oxford Mail and the Guardian reporting that asylum seekers are living at MoD Bicester on or before 16 December 2026. Staff, contractors and construction crews do not count; silence resolves NO.
We found eight such fights since 2020. Each time the Home Office planned to house asylum seekers on a large former military site, or a similar one, and the local council or residents organised against it. We counted from the day the Home Office confirmed the site and asked whether a council or residents went to court within 31 days. The newest come first. Barnham and Linton-on-Ouse, named in June 2026 with Bicester, are left out because 90 days have not yet passed.
