You'll break your knees making that massive leap to a conclusion. You could just as easily infer that it was a terrorist, drug dealer, kleptomaniac, Father Christmas impersonator or public schoolboy.


It must be satisfying being able to see evidence for your world view in any action, no matter whether there's any logical basis for that inference or not.

Cannot see why the Co-op would be that concerned abort people nicking some of their produce.


1/2 of it is at its use by date or over its best by date. Saves them the trouble of having to dispose of it.


Perhaps they (and other supermarkets) should have a 'Please Help Yourself' section.

Poor Lady Barnett subsequently killed herself because of the shame of the publicity.


And since she clearly didn't need to steal groceries, was probably genuinely ill or forgetful.

exactly Azira, as per my point that LIB was wearing a poacher's bag inside her coat, and yes she committed suicide by electrocution, proving that she shoplifted for kicks. Not because there was a tory covernment: however, why is it that from 5-6 pm peak time there are only 2 cashiers operating at the Coop
Sounds more like deep depression. I've worked retail security in the past and have seen it all, for kicks/laugh, desperation, need, idiocy, drunk- retail security is more about visual presence and health and safety of staff and customers.

    • Gosh, calm down.. How about not getting so heated, and not eat for 24 hours with sips of water? Try it and you may, just may understand, starvation, no water. No meds at all even if you need them - hasten to add, don’t do it at all if you are medically dependent. In fact, why doesn’t ED - do this for half a day - say in Oct, when everyone has come back from enjoying their, hols, new term starting and as a community, we could all be 1.? Before, November, fireworks, etc.                    
    • Many thanks I have sent them a message  
    • Stop foreign aid spend and re-direct those funds to improve the lives of UK citizens.  People shouldn't have to rely on charities and food banks, their is enough food wasted in this country already which could be re-directed.  Let their own Govts feed them, why does the UK have to do it, how about other nations contributing.  Well if aid can't reach them, how are they supposed to be fed if as you say food parcels being dropped from planes doesn't work.  Lets sort out this country first and put UK citizens first for a change.   
    • Well that really is not Christian Spirit at all - we all live in this world and yes, totally agree that it would be wonderful to have no conflict in the world but that is not possible. Yes we have people in need of food  in this country but overall enough charities and organisation in the west to help. We are talking about thousands of people who are starving - not just going hungry - a huge difference would you not agree ? Aid can’t reach people - for whatever conflict and don’t think people dropping parcels, boxes etc from planes would be the answer either.
