The collapse of the Primark factory in Dhaka has sparked many concerns and reasons for action against the conditions of factories and they way that's the workers are treated also.
Problems arisen as a result of this tragedy include, realistic research into how little a person can physically live off of, the amount of Bangladeshi factories which are in the same condition, the arrest of the factory owners of their sheer lack of humanity and intelligence. (personal opinion), discussions on whether boycotting the companies which provide such awful conditions to their workers, would be a positive effect or whether it would further push the workers into poverty as they rely on the jobs that these big UK brands such as Primark and Mango give them.
