Migration: Video playlist

A UK Border Control Agency Inspector illustrates how he detects and prevents illegal immigration into the UK. We see how lorries are examined at border points, explore how immigrants get to the UK illegally and discuss people trafficking.

This clip could be used as a trigger to investigate the distinctions between the terms ‘asylum seeker’ and ‘illegal immigrant’. Use in conjunction with information about the issue of people trafficking. This could be investigated from different contexts such as ‘human rights’, ‘crime’ or ‘slavery’.
