Labour would use barges to temporarily house asylum seekers, says Stephen Kinnock
Shadow immigration minister says party would have no choice but to deal with ‘mess we inherit’ from Tories

The shadow immigration minister, Stephen Kinnock, said the idea makes him “deeply unhappy” as it is the last thing the party wants to do. But he said Labour would have “no choice but to deal with the mess we inherit”.
