Television presenter Patrick Christys has delivered a blistering critique of both the Labour administration and the National Crime Agency, revealing that fewer criminal networks have been dismantled under the current government compared to their Conservative predecessors.
Speaking on GB News, Christys described the statistics as "absolutely crushing for the Labour Government" and called the situation "a disgrace".
The broadcaster expressed particular frustration that his team had supplied the NCA with comprehensive intelligence about numerous human trafficking operators, including their whereabouts and audio recordings.
During his own investigative work, Patrick encountered four traffickers within just sixty minutes, leading him to assert with confidence that many such criminals are operating within the UK.

The presenter launched a fierce attack on the NCA's hiring procedures, questioning whether the agency employed sufficiently experienced personnel to tackle organised crime effectively.
"I thought they were a load of hard-nosed police officers but you can come straight into it from university, it's basically a Civil Service position in some instances," Christys stated during the broadcast.
He demanded answers from the agency, asking: "What the flipping heck are you doing?"
The GB News host revealed that his investigative efforts had led him to personally encounter multiple trafficking suspects in a remarkably short timeframe.

His fieldwork demonstrated the apparent accessibility of these criminal operators, raising serious questions about why authorities had failed to apprehend individuals who seemed to be operating openly.
Patrick expressed deep frustration that despite providing authorities with extensive documentation about trafficking networks, including voice recordings and specific locations, no meaningful action had been taken.
"We have singlehandedly given the NCA details of countless human traffickers, their locations, voice notes and everything," he revealed during the programme.
The presenter highlighted widespread public dissatisfaction with the current situation, noting that citizens had reached their limit regarding the authorities' apparent inaction.

He pointed to a broad spectrum of criminal activities associated with these networks, stating: "The list of offences is all sorts, sexual assault, GBH, all sorts but for all of this guff, it turns out this lot has smashed fewer gangs than the Tories."
His comments reflected mounting anger over the perceived failure to act on actionable intelligence.
The show featured a heated exchange with political commentator Jonathan Lis regarding Britain's asylum framework and trafficking networks.
Lis argued against dismantling the current system, stating: "I would not want to throw the baby out of the bathwater and end the asylum system."
He acknowledged criminal behaviour amongst some asylum seekers but warned against collective punishment, adding: "You might have Afghan people who have committed crimes. That's unacceptable but it's collective punishment to end the whole system. We owe them gratitude for what they have done."
Patrick firmly rejected this position, responding: "No we don't."
The presenter then highlighted the role of Iraqi Kurdish groups in trafficking operations, asking: "We were told all sorts about the Iraqi Kurds, who is running all these trafficking operations now? It's the Iraqi Kurds. They're the leading cohort. Do we owe them?"
