More about the Chinese cocklepickers who died in Morecombe bay. The case against the gangmasters is proceeding.
Apparently their poor families are having a really hard time in China, being pursued for repayment of the money they raised to pay the Snakehead gangs who smuggled their sons into the UK. They are wanting compensation for all this suffering from the British government. Said the father of one "I feel the British government has a responsibility - they should watch the ports more closely"
So let me get this straight, these people knowingly paid huge sums to violent gangs to commit criminal acts and now it's our government's fault. Or rather it's your fault and mine, since we as taxpayers foot the bill.
