2:52Now PlayingBournemouth is famous for its sandy beaches, sunny weather and wholesome seaside attractions. But over the summer it also became infamous for the number of asylum seekers put up in its hotels.
While most political parties are competing to sound tougher on illegal migration - the Lib Dems are still putting forward a more humanitarian approach, albeit with a slightly harder tone.
"Anybody sensible wants a fair and effective immigration asylum system," says Lisa Smart MP, the party’s home affairs spokesperson.
"We want a fair and effective system which treats people coming here, fleeing war and persecution, like human beings."
The Liberal Democrat conference is taking place from 20-23 September. Sky News will be bringing you all the coverage live from Bournemouth.
