Hungary announces it will detain all new migrants in camps until their asylum applications have been processed 

Hungary will detain all migrants into the EU until their asylum applications have been processed to stop them heading to countries such as Britain, it emerged last night.

They will not be allowed to leave makeshift camps across the country unless they either return home or have been granted leave to remain, a government spokesman said yesterday.

Donald Trump’s hardline stance on migrants entering the US has emboldened Hungary to implement the plan within weeks, it was suggested.
