Petition Abolish Slave Labour in the UK

More details

This is a call for the government to acknowledge the extent to which workers are being exploited in the UK through:
unpaid internships,
work experience placements,
trial shifts,
training days and any other title given to somehow justify slavery.

The government must enforce the law that says all workers must be paid National Minimum Wage. There must not be loopholes for businesses looking for cheap/free labour.
