If money is short, one way of getting home is to take a long distance bus. One national company is offering fares home on Christmas Day this year for as little as £5 including a reclining seat as an added incentive.
For people who have to work on Christmas day but who might be able to share some of it if they hopped straight on a bus this would be wonderful. Then they could savour that wonderful moment when you put your key in the door, and go into your home. Out of the living room rushes your wife and children descend on you from all over the house.
They then lead you into the dining room, set for your festive evening dinner all aglow with sparkly silver and gold, red and blue crackers and a beautiful Christmas tree. How wonderful to be back in the bosom our your family.
But how different is the experience of the average sexual slave in the UK. This young mother is probably hundreds of miles from her home with no possibility of going back to family at Christmas. Add to that the fact that she is a virtual prisoner in a pop up brothel in the quiet suburbs of Manchester for example, and will be visited, even on Christmas day, by men who want to drown their unhappiness by using her body as a plaything. What a contrast.
If you find it difficult to envisage how this young woman might feel, please read the novel ‘The Garden of Sparkling Delight,’ by Deborah Varen. This will open your eyes to the utter misery behind the statistics of slavery which is far far worse, than it ever was in the classic slave trade era. Then please join me in my campaign against this dreadful modern evil. The novel is available from Amazon in paperback and Kindle, as well as FREE from this site in a downloadable format in AUDIO for you to listen to on the bus or train, or in your car or while you wash the dishes. Please read this and join me in my fight for these precious human beings who have been turned into a tradable commodity worth millions of pounds.
The book can be obtained from Amazon in paperback and on Kindle or from this site as a FREE audio download. Also from YouTube. The book is an exciting read and will keep you on the edge of your seat!
