I really feel that there are a lot of people here, that have no idea how the rag trade works.
I have a little experience in this field, & I can assure you, a lot of these suppliers don't always have a lot of workers in a workplace to audit.
Clothes are dropped off at workers own houses 500/1000 pieces at a time, to do necessary detail work, (i.e. stitching etc etc), at piecemeal work rates, this is where the £3 a hour comes in.
How do you think Boohoo can retail a £10 dress???????
These kinds of practices have been in place for years & years in this business.
Its all "Un-Auditable in many ways"
Wake up people!!!!, the press won't drop this anytime soon, they are like a dog with a bone, & as the British love to do, try & topple a leader/winner
As good as Boo are as a business, being built on these foundations, is very dangerous
