I'm outraged by the incident of an Indian migrant agricultural worker left to die by his employer in #Italy 🇮🇹. I strongly urge the Government to take a firm action against the perpetrator & make necessary changes to the existing migrant labour programme. independent.co.uk/news/world/eur…

I welcome the scrapping of #RwandaPlan by #UnitedKingdom 🇬🇧, to which we consistently expressed our concerns, but any replacement must place the protection of all migrants, including the victims of contemporary forms of #slavery, at its core. Yvette Cooper Home Office
I am disturbed by this report in 🇬🇧 showing indicators of forced labour. It raises a question on the efficacy of the current systems in place to identify human rights abuses, secure access to justice & remedies, and promote human rights due diligence. www-bbc-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.bbc.co…
