      Guidelines for Human trafficking have to include much longer sentences with assets seized. IMO it’s worse than drug smuggling.

      Has there ever been a point where the police and legal system have *not* said that [insert crime here] is “evolving faster than we can respond”?

      The UK has one of the highest illegal migrant populations in Europe, and that was before the massive increase in population and migration over the Boris years). The UK also has a substantial legal population from countries where these kind of work abuses are common.

      The country overlooks this because the right want cheap labour, the left are uncomfortable about enforcement and see migrants as part of the anti-conservative voting coalition (even if that’s often not true), and both the left and right of the political class have metropolitan social attitudes which are substantially more socially liberal than the general population.

      There’s an irony there in that the victims are migrants, but this is what happens when we create a system which allows unprecedented numbers of people into the country and then doesn’t enforce migration status. If that is your policy you’re in favour of an underclass population. Unless ultimately we don’t want to enforce the border at all, as with the Greens, which is mad but at least consistent in these terms.

      The solution is going to be uncomfortable because it’s most likely people aren’t trapped in the sense of they can’t go home, but that they are illegal immigrants that don’t want to go home.

      Fixing this means prosecuting the business abusing them but also sending those who aren’t here legally back home. The next problem is the grey area. Some people thought they were receiving a proper paperwork when they weren’t. It’s an abuse of power, but the victim gets punished together with it.

      Hopefully more is done to identify these businesses but it’s not going to be a happy ending for those who were exploited.

      Anyone else think “Modern Slavery” would be a cool name for a post-punk band?
