Bibby Stockholm Barge – Bibby Stockholm, a large barge, is now berthed in Portland Port, Dorset. This is part of a wider move to ‘accommodate’ those seeking asylum in large-scale, institutional, out-of-town, and quasi-detention settings.
Illegal Migration Act & Rwanda Plan – Over the past two years, the UK Government has introduced a series of laws and policies designed to make most people’s asylum claims inadmissible and forcibly send those affected to Rwanda.
