A great report. "The UK’s approach...tak[es] a carceral and punitive approach to “tackling exploitation”. This approach sees exploitation in binary terms, failing to address its root causes and prevent it from happening, and does not meet survivors’ needs."

This 👇🏽 is an example of how social services, recruited into a hostile environment mindset push families into poverty. Many families are blocked from benefits & are expected to survive on crumbs (actually - unlawfully low levels of money) from councils. Shame on London Borough of Bexley
