  "textContent": "As an embattled Labour government faces growing pressure to deliver on its promises in the wake of last week’s elections, victims and survivors of modern slavery are urging MPs to act on a long-standing injustice: the barriers that prevent trafficking survivors from rebuilding their lives.\n\nMPs are being asked to sign a pledge to introduce law changes to protect survivors’ rights to mental health, legal, housing and other forms of support, as part of a campaign backed by anti-slavery and migrant rights organisations, including After Exploitation, Anti-Slavery International, and International Justice Mission.\n\nThe campaign comes in the same week the Home Office made it harder for survivors to access support by updating government guidance in a manner that could penalise those who do not disclose their exploitation quickly enough.\n\n### This post is for subscribers only\n\nBecome a member to get access to all content\n\nSubscribe now",
