Why is this allowed to happen in 2014? A factory collapsed and everything? Are Primark immoral? Are shoppers of Primark clothes immoral? should all produce, not just meat, be traceable to its source?

The story is a week old (if not more), and it's important to note that the tags were added in Britain by protesters.
Pretty poor stitching in that second picture. Probably not the work of some 12 year-old in Bangladesh - they at least take some pride in their work. Putting quotation marks around the word 'degrading' smacks of a poorly educated Brit.
I don't get all the fuss? Over here the job centre would tell you that walking 100 miles in the blistering sun without water to and from work everyday is totally acceptable and expected if it means getting a job!
They have it easy!
It's not a matter of cheap fashion either, look at the deaths from blood diamonds.
I feel sick. From now on I urge everyone to boycott any clothes made outside the UK.
Lolol, sure.
If anyone believes it's only stores like Primark that get their clothes made in Bangladesh in a factory with underpaid and overworked employees, they should do a little research.
not true at all
