I really don’t like how the article (like so many others) uses the term “illegal migrants” for “asylum seekers”. Entering an EU country seeking asylum is a priori legal. That’s the entire point of asylum law.
This is particularly bad when the descriptor “illegal” is applied to the person (“migrant”) rather than the act of entering a country (“migration”). Humans can not be illegal.
“Undocumented” or “irregular” are the words to use in this case.
No you see, when you start like this, then you cannot give the people you exploit someone to look down on, so maybe they would start asking, why they get so little from the work they do and you get so much. That could result in people demanding change of the social and economic order.
