NOURNEWS- Finally, after a long debate between human rights institutions and British officials, and simultaneously with the passing of a repressive resolution in the British Parliament against immigrants, the plan to settle immigrants and refugees in a boat named "Bibby Stockholm" started a week ago.
This vessel, which is reminiscent of the prisons that float on the waters and in which countless prisoners are kept, is docked in the port of Portland, England, and the government claims that it is considering this vessel to reduce the cost of housing immigrants who reach Britain by boat.
In the meantime, the media affiliated with the royal family, such as the BBC, tried to portray this vessel as a safe and desirable place for immigrants and refugees and to give a more humane color to this behavior.
BBC showed new dimensions of its capability in whitewashing and purifying human rights violations by showing images from inside this float and expressing sentences describing the facilities of Bibby Stockholm, such as TV viewing room, place of prayer and worship, swimming pool and sports hall, etc.
In addition, the British media publishes a series of reports focusing on the critical situation of immigrants in other countries to make the audience believe that the "Bibby Stockholm" float is a very favorable place for immigrants who have taken refuge in Britain.
Publishing reports about the death of 41 migrants who died when a boat sank near the Italian island of Lampedusa, or publishing videos allegedly sent to BBC Persian by a group of Afghan refugees in which they say Greek police boarded their boat and has been beaten and... it is remarkable in this regard.
Of course, despite the extensive efforts of the London media to purify the inhumane action of the government of "Rishi Sunak", the people transferred to the Bibby Stockholm boat, due to the discovery of legionella bacteria (the cause of a type of pneumonia or even a lung infection) in the water system of this boat temporarily were moved to another place.
The occurrence of this human tragedy occurs when the British Firefighters Union called this vessel a potential "death trap" and forty other institutions and organizations signed a letter and considered the placing of migrants and refugees in it similar to detention.
Also, some human rights organizations have considered this act as a crime and a violation of international laws and the 1951 Refugee Convention, which will bring a dangerous heresy.
It is more bitter that; The capacity of this 222-person vessel has been increased to 500 people in such a way that human rights institutions consider the existence of small rooms with this population to be equal to solitary confinement where there is no privacy.
The behavior of the British government with immigrants and refugees is clear evidence of the mirage of imaginations and fantasies that some people have about becoming refugees in Western countries, including Britain.
This critical situation can be seen in the confessions of people who have fallen victim to the media's false depictions of a good life in Britain and have ended up in Bibby Stockholm.
Britain refuses to fulfill its humanitarian and international obligations towards immigrants and refugees, while a country such as Iran has been a kind host for millions of displaced people from neighboring countries for years despite heavy and cruel sanctions.
Comparing the practical behavior of Iran and Western countries, including Britain, towards refugees reveals the lies of the humanitarian claims of the West, which itself is the main cause of the displacement and sufferings of hundreds of millions of people around the world.
