There must be a boycotting campaign against these brands and factories, and more importantly, huge fines by related governmental entities, yet unfortunately,the regime in jordan is corrupt af, so the fines will be 'sucked' by the corrupt people

Important article. Forwarding to organizations like tiscreport assetcampaign ilo among others.

Have you covered the garment workers in the UK?

Labor abuse is for greedy Wall Street investors, not brands. The investors reap the profits, not the brands. The Guardian knows better than to blame the brands.

Sad

This is shameful.
