Was in co op today and saw a man take lots of meat packs and walk straight out the door, I told a co op staff member and they said oh Did not seem too bothered and said they don't ever have any security working there

Is it now ok to steal food, maybe things have got so bad for people that they have to

I think he has heard the Dulwich vegans are starting our Meat Free Days again and is getting prepared.


If you would like to try a meat free day, which reduces your carbon footprint, land, energy and water use, then why not tweet me at @DulwichVeganSoc and I'll send you some meat free ideas!

I would have said the same thing. From what I remember if my says working at a Co-op, if there's no security you need two witnesses and even then, if you challenge them and they bolt for the door, what are you going to do? Plus I want paid enough to care about that. If there's no security then so be it. Even security guards have limited powers and it's such a common occurrence. It is frustrating though, I agree.

"maybe things have got so bad for people that they have to" Things have always been bad for many people. What planet have you been living on. Years ago we sent people to Australia for nicking bread. In some countries they cut folks hands off.


Sorry but that was a bit of a naive statement.

So one person goes into a shop and helps them self and it is passed off as one of those things. ??


Then surely it's ok for anyone to walk into a shop and help them self.


So 20 people walk into a shop and help them self. and it constitutes a Riot. Looting


People have short memories.

would you steal broccoli and mung beans from the co-op if you were skint Tom ?

I've seen similar several times and also in the co-op with meat. One time a lady walked in, picked up 3 joints of topside and just walked out. And nobody batted an eyelid.


The new Co-op sucks anyway - those plastic wooden floorboards that are meant to look "organic" and "your local Dulwich store" pretenses of neighborhood intimacy from a national chain make me want to vomit. It's bigger, yet strangely much harder to find anything.

Show me why people have to steal food because it's "got so bad".

    • It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face. 
    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded
