When they escaped and tried to seek justice, their case was thrown out — not because it lacked merit, but because they missed a three-month tribunal deadline.

They were homeless, undocumented and traumatised — and the system still said “too late.”

Justice shouldn’t have a deadline.

Seasonal migrant farm workers came to the UK from Chile to pick fruit for one of the country’s biggest berry producers, only to face debt, racial abuse and exploitation.
