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".

    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
    • Sometimes a shed or other installation has to have written approval from the freeholder i.e. Southwark, Southwark has (or did have) a Leaseholder Association.   Could also come under Anti Social Behaviour Unit.
    • Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.
    • Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…
