I worked 30 years in retail,i left because the shoplifting got so bad, there is no deterent and the shoplifters were violent towards us staff,and as always despite c.c.t.v management blamed us staff for stock going missing unbelievable
The problem is there is "No deterrent". When the police don't arrest the shoplifters and hold them until it goes to court then shoplifting will continue. Too many criminals are being given "taps on the wrist" and let go to reoffend.
Security staff on the minimum wage and if they try to stop someone stealing they could be charged with assault not the thief Completely and utterly ridiculous the staff have virtually no powers unlike America who use tazers if necessary if they are assaulted.
The police don't have their hands tied they have the laws in place to allow them to arrest thieves, the problem is the top brass and College of Policing being too bloody woke and political rather than focusing on the job. The police need to do the job they are paid for, you have 7 out of 10 police officers in the Met that have gone 12 months and not made a single arrest, that is ridiculous if they aren't arresting anyone sack them, they're no bloody use and a drain on resources. It's time to shake up the police get tough with them and sack those who under perform and make no arrests.
It's laughable if not sad! Just before Xmas a man was chased by a Morrison security guard running out with two medium sized Xmas trees! The security guard rescued one of them but the shoplifter shouted let me keep this one and continued to run off with the other tree! The police do nothing because they will not come out for anything well below £100 that was a while ago. With inflation I wonder how much more the shoplifters can take and the police still don't do their job.
They haven't got their hands tied behind their backs at all. They are just scared of hurty words and having to do some real work. If the police were behind normal the public, the normal public would be behind them.
How about licencing security guards to carry pepper spray and allow them to use it? Maybe also a pair of handcuffs so the crooks can be restrained IF the police bother to turn up. (on a quiet day with not many hurty words online).
The only thing shops can do is lock the door. And let people in if they feel safe to do so. 😢 A worker in a supermarket said that the police won't come out unless it's over £600 In Asda. I've seen people just walk off with the trolley full. Security tried to stop her she just walked off and got on a bus.
So am I right in thinking that the only plan ANYBODY has is to talk about everything that's happening until we're all picked off and the whole country is taken over????
1. Stores can't safely confront thieves because security are not allowed to posses any form of protective implement. The Government doesn't believe that it's a good idea to allow people to own self-defence implements, despite the fact that people are stabbed to death every other day. 2. The punishment for shoplifting isn't harsh enough. If you steal above a certain value or steal repeatedly, I think prison time is necessary. 3. Even if people are sentenced to prison time, it's hard to find a space for these people, because successive Governments have failed to adequately expand the UK's prison capacity.
These multi-million pound stores should be hiring more security instead of relying on an already stretched polices forces...but they wont as that eats into the company profits!
If the Labour party are sympathetic to sharia law, then sharia law should be applied to shop lifters from those same parts of the world. This could substantially reduce repeat offenders.
what needs to stop as well is their customer base everyday in my local pub there will be shoplifters taking orders and they will sell them to you for half price
No the shops should NOT have to take mesures at all also in doing the it will inflict on the cost of the goods. We pay taxes for police to defend us so time they do their job. Sick of this backward inverted resononig.
They don't bother about shop lifting or burglary, car theft, If your unfortunate to suffer from any of these try contacting them, no one will show up, maybe one of them support officers a few days later, had a car stolen from a car park not 200 yards from Leeds Police station went in told them they looked for a form for me to fill in didn't have any so went to print some 20 minutes later came back with the form filled it in and that was it, never heard from them again or the car.
The first video isnt shoplifting, thats just a robbery. The others are just robbers. The hop lift to order is bad. I know some will take a jar of coffee or something for their dinner. Those to me although they are doing wrong. Are doing so because they want to feed their kids or themselves. Those in shoplifting sports clothes, perfume wtc are in it foe money. They should be punished severely. If they were saying hurty words they would be punished.
The police are going out to reports of a man with a drone or camera doing youtube videos ! Then, instead of educating the caller and leaving , they spend an hour arguing with the drone operator doing a legal activity! BTW if someone offers you a cheap steak ! BUY IT ! BECAUSE SUPERMARKETS ARE RIPPING YOU OFF AND BUYING ALL FOOD FROM ABROAD MADE WITH CHEEP ILLEGAL LABOUR
Excusing petty crime ; Emboldens Criminals ; It will become blatantly obvious when an “Innocent “ Person is injured , Seems almost “ deliberate: and lets our “children” learn that “Crime Pays, 🙈
Got their hands tied with hurty words.
Yet they don't want to deal with "far right shoplifters"?!
@@MrTudwudand ileagals
They want their imports kept here by any means.
@ If it was far right shoplifters they would be out in force.
Country is going down the pan right in front of us, what a joke!
This country used to be apple of the world… how sad to say this in the past tense !
Lawlessness, currency collapse, government collapse.
Yes, yes, yes.
The rights to defend person & property should be on the side of the defender NOT the criminals. Arm shops!
Security guards should have tasers, with appropriate training of course.
Arm innocent civilians, if the police cannot maintain order "vigilantes" should be formed, it's a bad move but it's better than this lawlessness!?!
This is not shopping lifting it's day light robbery with violince
Disgusting behavior that is being rewarded by government complacency.
England is what California dreams of being.
Our pathetic governments and police are truly hopeless. Trump is the guy.
Every day more and more like failed state . I'm just another far right nutter though
I must be one to.
The police are way too busy complaining about people with cameras Legally filming them
too busy going after ppl for posting something on social media
ReformUK or BUST
I worked 30 years in retail,i left because the shoplifting got so bad, there is no deterent and the shoplifters were violent towards us staff,and as always despite c.c.t.v management blamed us staff for stock going missing unbelievable
You could pay security guards with the money we send to Afghanistan and Gaza
Any costs should go to Gov
There is a crime pandemic in britain which has been ignored for years
yes thanks to corrupt governments over the years, many people are awake now, we need to wake more up.
The problem is there is "No deterrent". When the police don't arrest the shoplifters and hold them until it goes to court then shoplifting will continue. Too many criminals are being given "taps on the wrist" and let go to reoffend.
Yep too busy on their asses scrolling over social media posts for hurty words because the Met have been given those orders .
Britain is lawless under Starmer and labour, we have to force Starmer and labour out. British people Unite, rise up and take your country back.
Ready when you are. this cant go on the clock is ticking .
Security staff on the minimum wage and if they try to stop someone stealing they could be charged with assault not the thief Completely and utterly ridiculous the staff have virtually no powers unlike America who use tazers if necessary if they are assaulted.
The young security are lovely people too, poor little Devils have more guts than almost all parliament
Have we lost our UK.🇬🇧
Yes!
Yes

And we all know why! Government don’t give a 💩, the usual suspects
muslim coppers, muslim king, muslim mayor of london, muslim head of the BBC. and the list goes on.
Its a shame I'm too white to get in on this
They haven't got their hands tied behind their backs at all. They are just scared of hurty words and having to do some real work. If the police were behind normal the public, the normal public would be behind them.
They are too busy chasing hurty words
Why don´t you, Julia, get the Police officials them self to interview?
Good argument for legal Fire arm ownership.
YOU CAN GET THOSE GOVERNMENT OUT THSTS WHAT YOUSE CAN DO !!
I would have "TUNRSTILES" like in football grounds, bar only opens when you have paid.......
Everthing will go online aldi in London wsnts you're credit card before u shop
‘Pattern recognition is NOT a crime’. It’s a natural born instinct and one that every person who’s ever lived has used to their advantage. 🤷♂️
FFS . They are now coming with wheelibins !
They know if they get caught doing this type of smash and grab, they will not see a prison
Who tied their hands 🤔
How about licencing security guards to carry pepper spray and allow them to use it?
Maybe also a pair of handcuffs so the crooks can be restrained IF the police bother to turn up.
(on a quiet day with not many hurty words online).

In Asda.
I've seen people just walk off with the trolley full. Security tried to stop her she just walked off and got on a bus.
Kleptomania is no longer an excuse 😢
Many police people are asking to work from home to look for hurty words. They are also asking for a pay rise to solve less real crime year on year.
Do them in charge want these shops to go bust ?
10 years jail for shoplifters jail afew will lower it
Much like the NHS Britain is falling apart as a result of poor management from the top
So am I right in thinking that the only plan ANYBODY has is to talk about everything that's happening until we're all picked off and the whole country is taken over????
Yep that sounds about right to me...useless fecking country
Im waiting for the word go, and I will
Hands are not tied for words, thinking,criticising or showing decent 👍
Nor for Rainbow People parades and carnivals.
There's enough resources to find and convict people putting hurty words on FB, its absolutely bonkers.

Army type guys as security......Police cant do it.
These multi-million pound stores should be hiring more security instead of relying on an already stretched polices forces...but they wont as that eats into the company profits!
LET'S HAVE A DAM GOOD CHAT ABOUT THE SITUATION 🤔🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They will not shop lifte in McDonald's 😂😂😂😂 the police are eating 😂😂😂
Always in there. Wonder if they even pay. Kebab house and McDonald's you find them

It's all by design. Don't fall for it.
Usual suspects but can't say anything you get done......
Increased taxes decreasing services the norm. Goodnight britain
God help us when SHIF takes place in the next couple of months!
a fictitious, non-existent deity is not coming to the rescue....if thats what your relying on for help i pity you.
What's that?

Cultural enrichment, great innit.

busy ! Doing diversity paperwork and LGBT work
Why has my comment disappeared, just stating what the police should do? Nothing offensive. No bad language.
Maybe we all should have id cards for the shops that we frequent.
Aww are starmers imports acting like they at home.
