It was a high profile story some time back when hundreds of foreign workers were stuck in Sweden after yet another company owner done a runner. Which eventually led to the state changing the rules in regards to berry pickers, due to the widespread abuse in Sweden.

The berry thing is nothing new. In 2010 there was a nationwide outcry from the migrant berry pickers due to bad harvest.

Now that is known, many Swedes are upset because the price just went up
