A man who claims he was held for several months at a travellers site in Bedfordshire which was raided by police in connection with slavery offences. The man says he spent several months at the Greenacres site, near Leighton Buzzard, in 2004 before he managed to escape. 24 vulnerable men were discovered there last weekend, they're suspected of being held against their will. Four men from the same family have been charged with slavery offences. 'Adam' is not one of the four anonymous witnesses helping police in their current investigation and his story pre-dates this new police inquiry. 

Also are we too quick to prescribe drugs to young people? A group of leading psychologists are worried we are and want an urgent review.
