Barnham, a village in Suffolk with fewer than 600 residents, is considering a symbolic vote on whether to declare independence from the UK following a proposal to use a former RAF site for asylum accommodation. The site could eventually accommodate up to 1,250 asylum seekers, although the government says any use would begin with smaller numbers and remains subject to assessments and approvals. Residents interviewed in the village raised concerns about the scale of the proposal and the limited local facilities, including the absence of a pub or shop. Others questioned the government's promise of giving communities greater local power. West Suffolk Council opposes the proposal, arguing that the site is unsuitable for asylum accommodation, while the government says no final decision has been made. The discussion follows a symbolic independence vote in Piddington, Oxfordshire, where residents voted overwhelmingly in favour, although the result has no legal effect.
