“You should be the UK’s Entrepreneur of the Year,” Milif jokes.

“How’s that?”

“Our lifejackets,” my Albanian foreman continues. “They give our customers confidence to attempt the Channel crossing. It’s lucrative genius.”

We continue inspecting my warehouse-stroke-sweatshop. Foam cut to size, stitched inside orange polyester, smuggled across to Calais. Simple.

“Do you reckon our lifejackets actually work?” Milif asks.

In answer, a text arrives from my lorry driver in France. A boatload of migrants has gone down wearing our lifejackets. No survivors.

“Maybe we should relocate to Turkey to take advantage of migrant traffic headed for Italy,” I tell Milif.
