The Bibby Stockholm barge is one of the vessels that have been earmarked by the British government to accommodate 5,000 asylum-seekers in a bid to lower the cost of hotels
Asked whether asylum-seekers should be put back on the barge despite the controversy over health risks, he stated:"Yes, I do, because it's costing around £6m a day in terms of the cost of hotels."
The first group of asylum-seekers was housed on the three-story barge on August 7, while some others refused to move on the barge.
