The asylum seeker barge which houses 400 migrants and has been dubbed a ‘floating prison’ by charities is set to be closed down next year.
The Bibby Stockholm will be closed in the next few months after the Home Office announced they will no longer need the barge when its contract ends in January.
It is moored in Portland, Dorset, and is one of three major accommodation sites for asylum seekers.
