  • Lan Ba Coal Mine on the Laoying Mountain in South West China is an illegal coal mine run by a business man in complicity with the local sheriff.  Illegal coal mines are often situated in the most remote parts of mountains and are very small.  If accidents occur they are simply shut and covered as if they never existed.  In coal miners run illegally accidents occur more frequently because health and safety measures are ignored. The economic boom of the recent years in China has seen a huge migration for work from rural areas because of the enormous decline in farming.  Many desperate people leave their homes searching for work and accepting any terms of employment.

  • Lan Ba Coal Mine, an illegal coal mine on the Laoying Mountains in South West China.   Illegal coal mines normally are run by a business man in complicity with a local sheriff.  They are generally small and situated in the inner parts of mountains.  If accidents occur they are simply shut and covered as if they never existed.  In illegal coal mines accidents occur more frequently because even the basic health and safety measures are ignored.  Just the bare fact that these mines are run on just one point of entrance and exit makes them extremely dangerous: if an accident occurs close to the shaft there is no passage to escape from.

  • Being asked to pay before my meal... more things like that. Nothing so drastic. For me there have been more the small things. To be honest, I think it only effects people maybe in their work place more than anything. On the outside most people in Britain are rather friendly. It is only with work opportunities.. that's when it is felt the most. For instance, not being able to move up on the work ladder, not given opportunities. That's were it effects the most. These are the things going on here in Britain more that the most drastic events like mass violence. That happens a lot less here. It is more economical here. Sometimes I think what does it take to be a Prime Minister? In my mind it is almost impossible to become a Prime Minister for anybody of my colour. I don't know why. June, 2016.

  • Linda, originally from Trinidad, is the single mother of a seven-year old daughter and the main carer of her elderly mother. She has been waiting several years for the Home Office to decide if she can remain permanently in the UK. Until November 2014 she was living in a small flat that she rented from an uncle. But, out of the blue, she received a notice of eviction. Her confused residency situation meant that she was not eligible for housing assistance.
