The asylum seekers in the UK, given housing only on a remote barge,
are living
in terrible conditions and say it is like a prison.
MPs told ministers, “We were disheartened to see some of the living
conditions on the Bibby Stockholm, with many individuals having to
share small, cramped cabins [originally designed for one person],
often with people [up to six] they do not know [some of whom spoke a
different language to them].”
One said told a reporter tat “We are concerned that housing asylum
claimants on Bibby Stockholm is leaving them in a claustrophobic
environment, isolated from external support, including legal advice,
and without important links to community, faith or family, potentially
for months on end.”
