Protests planned as asylum-seekers return to ‘death trap’ Bibby Stockholm barge
The Bibby Stockholm accommodation barge at Portland Port in Dorset, which will house up to 500 people

ASYLUM-SEEKERS are expected to be brought back to the Bibby Stockholm barge tomorrow.

Campaigners hit out against the Home Office’s “cruel scheme” today, with a number of groups understood to have planned protests at the site.

The floating vessel was evacuated following the discovery of life-threatening Legionella at the end of August.
