If the latest allegations against Amazon are proved to be true then it is time for everyone who buys books from the company to think again.
The current allegations centre around the Amazon warehouse at Bad Hersfeld in Germany.
It is said that staff are paid low wages, their accommodation is constantly under surveillance.
The majority of the workers come from Poland, Spain and eastern Europe.
A terrible story of modern-day slavery.
