Government to house 500 migrants on barge by Autumn

  • 10 months ago
Around 500 migrants will be housed on the Bibby Stockholm barge - which was met with protests when it arrived in Portland earlier this week.
Single men will live on the barge - where there is 24-hour security - in bunk beds with between two and six people per en-suite room.
A canteen, gym, classroom, exercise yards, television room and space for worship are among the "basic" facilities on board. Report by Covellm. Like us on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/itn and follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/itn
