I see this overt shoplifting as just another way, along with mass illegal immigration, that this country is sinking.  Give everything away to others for no advantage to the owners.  Even our own country.

I have just been watching a news report and discussion on GB News re. illegal immigration.  One of the do-gooders was trying to explain that we cannot legally stop them coming across the Channel.  Strangely, we managed to stop the Nazis doing the same thing!  It all seems to be about being nice and accepting things which are of absolutely no benefit to our country.
They also discussed the use of a foreign country, as has been discussed much earlier, regarding a place in Africa, where we could deport all illegal arrivals, and which would have cost far less than keeping all the criminals in four-star hotels or even much cheaper accommodation, though this was also disagreed with by the do-gooders.

I'm stumped what to get for my son and DIL for their 11th Wedding Anniversary which is end of April.  I try to stick to the traditional buys, for the 11th it's stainless steel.  Any ideas ?

The alcohol is behind glass in Morrisons, you have to ask for assistance.  My question is, once the assistant has taken a bottle of booze from the glass cupboard and the customer puts the bottle in her trolley, what's to stop said bottle disappearing into a bag in the bakery or pet food aisle ?  :grin:
