Frail Nadine Guerlach has been told by the draconian local authorities that she will be kicked out of her house in Calais to make way for a new migrant reception centre.

The devastated pensioner received a letter from the council telling her that she will be evicted from her rented home just a few metres from the notorious Jungle migrant camp "at any time".

The threatening letter does not state what her home will be used for, however it is understood that there are plans to turn it into a medical centre for migrants trying to break into lorries and reach Britain.

Locals have reacted with fury to the decision and have rallied round the widower's family, who have started an online campaign to get the eviction order overturned.

Mrs Guerlach defiantly said: "I have lived in this house for more than 40 years. I have all my memories here.

"The ashes of my husband are in the garage, right there. I will not leave this house, I will not leave."
