#1 "traffickers' promises of "a better life" for their children"

Depending on what they are being 'sold' from, they may have 'a better life' as domestic slaves in London.

I wonder though, who is doing the 'buying'; hypocritical liberal British elite? Or members of a sub-culture that has never even pretended to give up acceptance of slavery - or several other practices of the seventh century?

#2 Most likely, it's the sub-culture. Like african organized prostitution, obviously, or domestic slavery (of all the cases publicized in France, I seem to recall only one with an actual ethnic frenhc as the abuser), it's almost always people from the old country localised in the West using people fresh from the old country.

#6 very sad. Welfare has become a very negative force in society.

Welfare can be justified for a cohesive society, though sustainability and long term social effects are an another matter.
When it is being siphoned away by (ever growing, thanks to relentless immigration) minorities that are at best indifferent to the host society, generally speaking, then it becomes very harmful to the collectivity at large, since it is abused and is a great incentive for yet more immigration, which will further taxes the system, until...
