Today's shocking statistics on the scale of exploitation shows that slavery did not end when the practice was made illegal, but continues today, and why is it so underreported? Listen to Hatti Suvari talk to Felicity Gerry QC, a barrister and professor at Libertas Chambers, about what modern slavery looks like – from domestic workers and those forced in to labour in construction, fishing or agriculture, to individuals who are sexually exploited and young people used by county lines drug dealers. And find out how the law seeks to prevent abuse, protect the vulnerable and prosecute those who trade in human misery.
