As I understand things most of these people are sold a package including transport to the UK and a job and housing when they get there. The gangs that do this are run from the UK and have uses for any that make it here. They are the ones who provide the crappy boats and induce people to use them. They are the problem not their victims. -- Steve O'Hara-Smith Odds and Ends at http://www.sohara.org/ For forms of government let fools contest Whate're is best administered is best - Alexander Pope
