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".

    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
    • Also, just to add, the threat to kill someone's dog and try to kick it, is an additional extremely unpleasant layer. I have noticed a lot of the burst water balloons lying around in the park too- that is not great for the environment either.
