Catholic leader to visit monument to those who have died at sea; Italian PM Giorgia Meloni says country will not become ‘Europe’s refugee camp’
The Bibby Stockholm, a UK barge that briefly housed asylum seekers, has had “satisfactory” test results for legionella, after tests initially found the presence of the potentially deadly bacteria, the Guardian has learned.
The British Home Office, which hopes to hold hundreds of people seeking asylum on the barge in Portland, received the most recent legionella results on 4 September and government sources said they were not planning to make the results public. The Guardian obtained the results in freedom of information data from Dorset council.
