Create a specialist police unit to deal with modern day slavery.
Modern day slavery is a big issue in the UK with the amount of people referred to the National Referral Mechanism up. I believe that the UK Government should create a national modern slavery unit to crack down on modern day slave owners and the human traffickers that get them into the country.
