All aboard an asylum abomination

The FBU have branded Bibby Stockhom a ‘death trap’ yet this government are still having people board the vessel

Not all the asylum seekers asked to board Bibby Stockholm have done so, as reported by the BBC.

Yet who can blame them, when the government instead of responding maturely to Fire Brigade Union (FBU) concerns that the vessel was a fire safety ‘death trap’ accused them of being too strongly linked to the Labour Party.

Grenfell has clearly taught the Conservatives nothing in terms of heeding fire safety concerns.

Those in the Grenfell tower were at the mercy of poor construction unknowingly, yet the government has been duly warned about concerns regarding Biddy Stockholm and instead of paying attention would rather play politics.

I shudder to think what the next related headline will be.

If you are concerned about these issues you may wish to consider supporting Care4Calais or The Refugee Council.
