Shoplifting has gone up because people are poor and this government keeps making them poorer.
End of the day a slap on the wrist and a small fine isn't enough to deter anyone from shoplifting. Give bigger consequences to peoples actions and this would change.
The penalties for any form of shoplifting need to become far more severe, to act as both an example to others and as a deterrent - unlimited fines and unlimited jail time is a good start, as well as far harsher prison regimes, with any escape attempts, riots, etc in prisons met with uncompromising severity, which cannot be harsh enough - all prisons should be maximum security as minimum, even for the most “minor” offences
How many millions have been pilfered to off shore bank accounts and big businesses not paying tax …
Yes.. and what about the football last night? 😅
Exactly. Steal from big companies to fight back.
Billions every year
100% agree. We have no control as shop workers to do anything about shopping them
They're basically laughing at us as they walk out with stock
If the disgusting shops wouldnt charge ridiculous money, no one would be stealing
@@koby4094stop making bad life choices then blaming others, if shop lifters didn't theiv they wouldn't have to raise prices also taxation is there to keep the nhs, that serves the lazy and Ill behaved with their awful life choices you want cheeper prices start a movement to change the way you look at life, you cause the problems or do the problems cause themselves?
@@arcadealchemist the nhs is a disgrace and have pushed back one of my family members treatment for months, awful organisation. Also i have been in the same shop twice a day for 6 months and never paid for a thing. Its great in saving a fortune
@@arcadealchemist Stop with this low resolution thinking. Regardless of shop lifting, retailers want to make profit and It's got sod all to do with 'life choices' in a capitalist economy. Flights are expensive, houses are expensive are people stealing houses and seats on planes?
The real crime is the club cards and nectar cards
The increase in shoplifting is because of the cost of living crisis. Create one problem. Punish the people reacting to that problem. Punishment is more cost. Then you have an excuse to cut costs elsewhere. It all comes back to money. This government goes around in circles.
Circle of stupidity
Not just that security is slowly drifting away with no buffers of staff , as soon as self check outs came in I bet it sky rocked.
People don’t need to steal whisky and sirloin to live.
Lock them all up.
@@bretsbrit or raiding a jd for some shoes and a jacket lock every one of them up then they'll soon stop.
🎯100%. It was the absolutely brutal “austerity cuts” that has left full time working parents having to rely on food banks & yes,even shoplifting in order to feed their families & I’m only talking in regards to shoplifting food items. That’s just one more symptom of the cause,which is 13 years of TORY governance!
there is no way I'd be trying to stop anyone stealing and risking my safety for some random company no way
i think they're mainly referring to incidents in smaller shops where it's the owner of the shop wanting to protect their own stock.
Especially when those multi-billionnaire companies pay poverty wages to staff
UK is on a steady decline in so many aspects. There is a saying 'no good deed goes unpunished '. With the continued unchecked generosity and going soft on discipline and laws, we are seeing the decline.
What kind of generosity have you been seeing in the last 13 years of brutal austerity cuts by TORY governments because I haven’t been seeing anything remotely close to basic humanity,never mind generosity. Well unless your a pro ‘team corrupt corporate multi millionaire & billionaire club card carrier’ that is. They see plenty generosity from these TORYS. What other “generosity” have you been seeing from them exactly?
I Don't understand why! These MPs Don't understand! If they Helped people more with the cost of living Crisis! The shop lifting would go down
90 % of these shoplifters & pickpockets in central london are foreigners. lets give them mo money
They understand, they just can't admit it as it's a problem of their own making.
🎯 Exactly. The massive rise in shoplifting is due to the brutal TORY austerity cuts. Your comment is spot on. Good parents will feed their kids by any & all means necessary. Shoplifting is only a symptom of the real world effects of TORY governance!!
@@newfi433 I agree.
They know that ripping off 99% of people will increase their profits by maybe 40%. So they don't care about shoplifters causing 0.5% loss
I feel like I'm being robbed when basic foods go up 20 percent in a week and am tempted to nick .....
Best performance I've ever seen from Chris Philp. He almost sounded as if he would be prepared to do something.
He talks a lot but didn't say anything that gave me confidence that things will improve.
Yet you'll still vote Labour no doubt
13 years of CONSERVATIVE CUTS.
WE NEED INVESTMENT IN THE BRITISH PEOPLE.
VOTE LABOUR 🙂
That called socialism
So they can steal something costing under £200 but all they have to pay back is £70?
only once. 2nd offence is court
@@jacksoncrate do you know if they don’t or can’t return what they’ve stolen they get charged the cost of that on top of it? Even if someone can only get away with it once a lot of people might think it was worth it.
The US is having the same issue-they dont prosecute & its laughable to think theyre going to investigate these crimes
Should be sorting out the corruption and cover ups that take place first and foremost before looking outwards at the poorest of this land.
From all man and woman who acts as public servants from the top to the bottom.
Just a thought
Thank the TORYS austerity cuts for this because when those brutal austerity cuts came into force, people who were even working full time or a couple of part time jobs had to rely on food banks to feed them & their families & yes, of course it led to a rise in shoplifting!!
If I’ve been working all week & don’t have enough cash left after paying all the gas bills,electricity bills & bank loans off, which has left me completely broke due to austerity cuts, then of course I & everybody else who cares about their families would do WHATEVER it takes to put food in my kids stomachs. As long as it’s not causing harm to anyone else & I would only ever do it with multi billion dollar supermarket chains. I wouldn’t shoplift from any small family ran corner shops,not EVER!
That makes you a thief then, stop making pathetic excuses, you should be locked up
@@DavidSmith-zs9dg stop making pathetic excuses you should be locked up😇🤣
@@DavidSmith-zs9dg Respond & tell me what makes you think I am one of the REAL criminals, if you are able too that is. If you don’t reply I’ll assume that you can’t justify opposing my straight up,straight to the point FACTS of this obscene corrupt criminal capitalist system,set up strictly for the ruling classes & criminal capitalistic financial elite CONS to prosper over the worker class peoples who create ALL OF THEIR WEALTH & THEY ARE LITERALLY ADDICTED TO HOARDING that wealth for nobody but THEMSELVES!
@@DavidSmith-zs9dg I take it the fact your not replying to my take on your small minded & truly pro corrupt ruling class elites & their donors actions, has altered your opinion on this matter ?
Or are you still of the mind that this utter disgrace of 13 years of team pro austerity on the poorest & most vulnerable peoples & pro corrupt capitalist elite conmen supporting TORY GOVERNMENT is of less an issue than that of some working class single parent or some financially poor elderly peoples, who are literally being forced into shoplifting food items from multi billionaire companies,who make sure their main financial based offices are in some tax haven based island & you still think that those most corrupt & unethical actions are more worthy of your focus & what seriously comes across as some misplaced hate, for some of the most poor,vulnerable & powerless peoples in the UK who might steal a loaf of bread out of a Tesco store ? Or have I made you think that,hmmmm🤔 “maybe yeah, maybe I’m hating on a symptom, instead of being passionately enraged at those people who have legitimately caused the issues, of which you have problems with.”, or are you a die hard (K)ultist of the great leader trumpet, who is a lifelong fraudulent,corrupt criminal capitalist conman,turned dictator of the west wannabe,by any means possible, including via the failed attempted HOSTILE TAKEOVER OF AMERICAS VERY DEMOCRACY or just a bozzo Boris cult card carrier. Or are you neither ? Serious question.
@@DavidSmith-zs9dg It seems like Davie boy has left the chat. Make of that what you will, but I think it’s because his stance on this matter was based on quick sand. See, when you make sure your political or ethical stances on whatever topic are based on quick sand, they seem to sink at a rapid speed, never to be seen in a thread they chose to take a stance on in the 1st place, ever again. ✊🏼🇧🇿🏴✊🏾
A Tory mp spends $32,000000 tax money on her office being refurbished this is far more criminal then shoplifting.
I want to see a zero tolerance to politicians with no lived experience, no intelligence, and no intentions of providing the policy reforms needed to reduce shoplifting!
On entering a bank, it's their ruling that motorcycle helmets, hoodies, sunglasses and other means of hiding identity are removed. Why don't shops make it a ruling for customers to show their face in detail before being allowed into a shop. The police need to nip this shoplifting in the bud too
The whole system doesn't have that capacity... police, the courts, the prisons...nothing's gonna change
14 million Britons are living under the poverty line, there is a cost of living crisis in the UK, if people are stealing food, I emphasize food, it's because the government is clearly disengaged and haven't done much to support these individuals who are struggling. They can't steal electricity, but the unfortunate have to eat and not only canned food from goodhearted NGO's. They've spend millions on the coronation and pageantry but not on feeding those in need.
Wow didn't realize UK had a similar issue like us in the US. We got all kinds of evidence on shoplifters but nothing really happens.
We have had 13 years of Conservative government who are trying to turn britain into USA. They have destroyed everything.
Shoplifting lingerie under 200 pounds is the most important thing right now!!
It’s their british privilege.
I shop at waitrose and the staff allow the pensioners to loot the shelves.
What are you talking about 😂
@@tom4626 You can’t afford to shop at waitrose so be quiet and go back to Aldi.
@@tom4626 you cannot afford to shop at waitrose so stay out of my mentions.
Go and rob Aldi and Asda.
It's not a matter of us rejoining it's whether Europe would want us back after the country has shown how untrustworthy it is.
A lazy media!
It looks like that stealing anything less than £200 and a fraud above £2MM is not a crime. LoL.
I shoplift everyday of the week. Why pay when you can get it free. Just pretend to scan items at the self checkout, and walk straight off.
You obviously don't shoplift everyday because you can't just pretend to scan items😂 you sound like a wannabe to me
Based
not suprised people shop lift with the cost of food atm
Most people are fatties,they should learn to be less greedy and eat less instead of spending so much money on grub.
There's food banks which gives free food. So no need to shoplift. Also a lot of people shoplift things that are not essential (e.g. alcohol or electrical appliances)
I’m sick of the hypocrisy and shame this party has brought onto this country. It’s sick!
That's what happens when you can't afford to live.
The shoplifting is by gangs for money, it has nothing to do with cost of living at all. Conviction rates for all crimes are massively down to less than 3% i.e. criminals get away with it all the time.!!!
For a fiver you can get a selection of decent vegetables and a pack of bacon !
@ukkjpl that's great...if you have a fiver 🤷♂️
What if you don't have a fiver?
But why is a person struggling with the cost of living shopping in M&S??? 😂
Make theft that results in the stolen amount surpassing £100 met with consequence of a 1 year minimum prison sentence.
Phipps you know nothing of the people or our struggles
They need to be taking advice from Andrew Tate on how best to tackle this problem - I’ve been hearing from Ireland how since Covid, they have deployed armed Police into stores to tackle shoplifting head on in a firm and uncompromising manner - respect for the law can ONLY be learned through fear of the law AND of the consequences of breaking the law - I’ve worked in supermarket retailing for 30 years and the penalties for shoplifting are just not severe enough and not even jail time is a deterrent, because prison regimes are simply not harsh enough - we need to look at far harsher punishments for shoplifting - and rather than using emotional language like “intimidation” (which itself is a good thing) it should be about prevention, enforcement and deterrent, which is why ALL U.K. police forces MUST be routinely and visibly armed in our city centres - these feral little tikes were never properly “put in thier place” as they should have been, a long time ago - it really is time to stop messing about and start to deal properly and far more severely with this problem
How can you ask police officers to be tough on crime while accusing them of being heavy headed? By doing so, you are taking away police authority, people are not scared of the police anymore, that's why crime is everywhere! Support the police. the police is not there to be polite and kind. They are there to catch the bad guys. Stop asking for fair treatment for criminals. We should be tough on criminals! Criminals should know that breaking the law has consequences. Support the police, train them well and let them do their jobs.
Are you seriously trying to tell the population of the UK that instead of blaming the huge rise in shoplifting over the last 13 years,has nothing to do with the brutal AUSTERITY CUTS, which has caused more full time employed peoples than ever before, having to rely on food banks & yes shoplifting the likes of loafs of bread,milk,fruit & veg’ & so on, too feed their families are the “bad guys”. Your claiming they are “the bad guys”, in comparison to the silver spoon born,team pro corrupt corporate TORY politicians ? It’s the TORY ruling class elites & their last 13 years of austerity cuts,implemented by the Tory governments who are the REAL “BAD GUYS”, no ?
Surely you can’t be blind to that fact ?
Women are very much afraid of the police. The police have lost people’s respect.
Unfortunate the Police hasn’t been properly supported for over twenty years. It’s not going to improve any time soon.
The milltary need to be deployed on our streets - we need to declare a national state of emergency and declare martial law in the U.K. until such time as we can get to grips with this problem, as weak civilian politicians will never do anything about this, in fact, they are enabling this epidemic of shoplifting
ok boomer
Zero tolerance and more heavy prison sentences.
One shoplifter may take a bottle of wine about 1000 pence (£10) from a Tesco superstore but another will steal electrical appliances worth £1000.
Agree. No confidence in anything any party says be it conservatives wimps or nutty labour.
no because i never and i go without and hungry at 63 yrs which on the sick i have gone without at times.guess its down to morals yet i kinder do understand if a mum or dad does it for they children rather than see them go hungry.
Yes.
I heard "Policing Minister Chris Filfth".. surely not ??
We call police pigs where I live
Mick lynch rail man proved this torie a liar on tv pure liar
Anything you want, you got it
yes crime fell as most crime the police wont respond to... so we don't report it... and most are decriminalised... time to bring in US style sentencing - Knife means life... Gun means Life... Shoplifting would be 5-10 years.... Yes we will need more prisons, but id rather pay tax knowing the ones who threaten society are removed from society....
Maybe the police think shop lifting is nonsense
Your average Police Officer does care. They just isn’t enough of them and not enough funding.
Chris looks terrified.
ps but we pay more because of those who shop lift.
This man
The Tories ministers are like musical chair's. I never liked the tories but this is the most useless government ever they where tough on crime no more.
where are all these extra policy we are but becoming a lawless society
Don't blame the police! When your responding to 999 calls, shop lifiting is the lowest priority. There is not enough officers, to cover the more risk to life jobs. It won't change until the government start funding the police properly
Bet tories wish they didn't slash police officers by 20,000 now and remove their budgets and salaries haha.
Why would and should members of the public put their safety at risk for objects that are insured when even the police can’t do shit 🤦♂️ Islam has the solution.
& police figures are not up per head of population...ffs point this out...
Not good enough
Is it me or does Chris Philip always looks Miserable
Can I eat in the house of conmens canteen ...?????
If this guy told me blue was blue i still wouldn't believe him after watching lie on newsnight
The Minister is HOT...and the interviewers are snobbish and arrogant.
Aldi is looking in you bag when you go through the till the empty bag from home and less you don't have bag with you and that us very bad making everyone thifs discrimination because it should be that way is no in tesco or any other shops only in aldi in Chelmsford when I spoke to head office they don't say that we gave to look in customs bag's and response to my questions they trying to avoid I will avoid all sh....it aldi everywhere the one in chemsford
Most of it to do with poverty and drugs Tories are finished and they know it
This is full of BS . Whatever he does
its Labours fault....lol
You're society is broken is all.

Classic problem, reaction, solution - they’ve let this happen - the shoplifters are out of control in our part of London, so brazen. Philips said ‘facial recognition’ how many times? hello face recognition EVERYWHERE.
Look whos doing it says it all thanks Blair
Chris is so hot 😍
Then cool him down
Really, that's what you got from the video?
Anyone who shoplifts and is on benefits should immediately have their benefits stopped! Our politicians of all persuasion have failed us; we need to be like the French!
Make desperate people more desperate and they'll steal more.
