    Thanks for adding all these details.

    Bibbi Stockholm will likely not comply with fire hazard laws and other such “rights” that are suddenly trivial and luxury when it’s an asylum seeker. As we speak, a large number of teachers, nurses, doctors, and their many associations in different parts of Sweden are refusing to report the paperless and calling for civil disobedience (as far as I know this is still a proposal the government wants to implement). The government doesn’t seem to be responding to this issue or addressing it.

      You guessed right, the very first day asylum seekers went onto the barge, Legionnaires’ disease was found in the water supply. Water safety tests were done prior but the people were moved in before the results returned from a lab - so everyone was re-located again while they sorted that out. No such corners are cut in normal situations & when they are - people lose jobs, licences, get sued or imprisoned for negligence. This was just treated as an “oops” as the blame was passed back & forth.

      “Rights” are indeed a luxury & the immigration minister even ordered staff remove artwork of Mickey Mouse from the walls at an asylum centre for unaccompanied kids because he said it was too welcoming. I get it, asylum seekers & refugees are not wanted in most countries but the way this is being done is just unbelievable.
