Legality of P2F

Can someone with some knowledge of employment law comment on the legality of P2F in UK.
My understanding was that we had a minimum wage in UK. How then can a company charge for one of the crewmembers on an aircraft certified as minimum 2 crew? Surely they should be getting paid at least the minimum wage? I understand that some airlines may be certified to provide training to people not working for them, but does line-flying for payment come under this sort of training?
If an airline is charging for line "training", surely then the pilots in command flying with these trainees should all be certified Line Training Captains. Is this the case?
