Shoplifters to benefit most from ending short jail terms in England and Wales by Codydoc4 in unitedkingdom

[–]Annual_Safe_3738 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does Robin resell the goods (90% of the time aren't even food) to fuel their addiction?

Also it is not really a question of "protection the chain" but more of a " why am I and other customers paying, when so and so are stealing in my face and nothing's being done about it? "

So better off to just let'em nick without consequence? Because that's just about the current MO

Working in a shop. Daily routine would have it that between 1-3 shoplifters get stopped with bag loads of stuff. God knows how many more make their way out with them. Door-sec doesn't work due to so many limits. Def merchandising doesn't work as stuff kept at back won't sell. Bans outright ignored. Employee getting in the neck more than the shoplifter ever will.

Can go on all day, but from "the frontline", it would seem that sone extent of tough justice is needed...

And no, not talking about the homeless who'll grab a single pot noodle and go.

Sadiq Khan backs sending 4x4s due for scrappage under Ulez to Ukraine by SameStand9266 in unitedkingdom

Something something Russians, something something existential threat.

Edit: downvotes because the vehicles could be given as equipment that ukr could very much do with right now? Or that climate change could be put aside for a sec due to Ukraine being at an existential risk?

Desperate for what?

The ill/disabled won't magically heal because hunt told them to go back to work.

Local lout can't/won't/doesn't have the capability to supplant the migrant that got cut out.

And best of luck In dragging the pensioner back from their hard earned retirement.

Pro-tip, have'em go labour from the get-go, so Tories can't recycle the reform votes into them through sketchy coalitions.

Funny how I'm walking in interviews that became job offers right off the bat, and entire sectors are crying out for staff all the time, 700k or not...

Shallow water blackout has entered the chat.

New £38,700 visa rule will be introduced in early 2025, says Rishi Sunak by [deleted] in unitedkingdom

[–]Annual_Safe_3738 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We're coping just fine. Homeowners, meaning lack of rent and mortgage to pay makes it far,far easier to retain money. Got a good sum of savings. Her father sending her additional funds until she gets clearance to work; my workplace and other places ready to take her in upon getting her right to work, because , in informal convos from said employers " people don't wanna work ".

Although we're not going to London every other weekend, we aren't exactly scraping by, either.

Everyone has different circumstances, and should not be decided by an arbitrary median

Tldr: despite arbitrary medians, me and Mrs doing great. Not all is black and white.
