MIGRANT WORKERS BUILDING THE ENGLISH ECONOMY

"workers are still frightened to come forward to report poor treatment from employers, as they are afraid of losing their jobs."

"We lived six to eight people in one caravan, with not much space - about half a metre at the end of the bed"

"People would walk through our room to get to the shower, so my friend and I had to push the wardrobe up to the bed to get some privacy,"

"Some even have to hotbed - this is where one worker gets up for a shift and the bed is then occupied by a co-worker who has finished a shift."

"I was known by a number and not my name, as we all were.
"We had to put a sticker with our number on all the trays we packed and that is what the supervisors would call us ... I was known as 137."

"We weren't allowed to talk to each other either. Eating was also a problem, there was no refrigerator and we only had one or two toilets for 100 workers."
