asylum bargeiNews (Indonesia)
•71% Informative
The three -storey barge was repurposed to house asylum seekers in a bid to cut down the cost of using hotels.
It has been the subject of a string of controversies, criticism and legal challenges since opening.
In December , an asylum seeker died on board in a suspected suicide.
New Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said she would initially keep the asylum barge but Labour wants to end the use of barges and hotels “as fast as possible”.
The barge had also been the subject of a legal challenge from the Mayor of Portland who argued Dorset Council could have stopped the barge from being moored at Portland Port which was recently dismissed. A previous High Court case also brought by the mayor to challenge the Home Office over the lawfulness of its decision to house migrants on the barge was also dismissed..
