    The trouble with common sense is it's not common enough. In a perfect world the shoplifter would be prosecuted and the shopshopworkerworker would be praised.

    Lindt luxury chocolates is hardly a food - at 13 pounds a pop, it was a nice little earner.

At least the fired employee knows how to support himself now that he doesn't have a job: He can just shoplift the food he needs from his former employer.

He could be living a life embittered with race triggered grievances.

Or worse, spending his days struggling to overcome his white guilt by defending racist DEI policies.

What ‘racist DEI policies’ Jonny?

This thread has nothing to do with DEI policies.

Or is that you picking at your need for grievance again?!

Just in UK or all over the World?

Nah, neither food nor water are basic human rights. People have to work for these resources, either through generating income to pay for it, or physically going out into the wilds and getting it.

That being said, this shop-lifting business has been going on for decades. The cheapest place to order the best steaks used to be at the local pub. One just had to ask and the scumbags would go get it from the closest supermarket. I never used there services because I despise theft, but it was very common and the scum doing the stealing weren't doing it to survive. coffee1

Access to clean water is a human right.

UN Resolution A/RES/64/292.

The right to food is enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1945), and in the UN 2021 Resolution A/RES/76/166. The resolution was adopted with a 186 votes in favor and 2 votes against.

The votes against were the U.S. and Israel.

Chocolate Easter Eggs are a Human Rite !

I wonder whether the thief was anything other than Christian.
