FoxLady Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 22 hours ago, Longcol said: Maybe because; 1) Can't ever recall anyone on SF ever claiming to witness 3 shoplifting events in the 20 years I've been on the Forum - never mind in a few weeks. 2) A public spirited poster might just have mentioned the area of Sheffield these things happened rather then "Co-op" or "Sainsburys" - not exactly a shortage of both in Sheffield. Yep - a minimum of a thousand of shoplifting events a day reported to the police in the UK (obviously an underestimate of the total) . Shoplifting reports to the police equate to as near as damn it one event per retail outlet per year. https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/crimeandjustice/bulletins/crimeinenglandandwales/yearendingjune2023 Crime in England and Wales: “Police recorded theft has increased by 10% (to 1.7 million offences) compared with the year ending June 2022. This rise was predominantly the result of increases in theft offences against businesses, such as shoplifting (a 25% increase to 365,164 offences).” https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=587141471&sxsrf=AM9HkKlYb14qtJmZ4pQfPfma7cdA0bv7Qw:1701476995842&q=How+many+retail+outlets+are+in+the+UK%3F&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiF3Ljfv--CAxWaT6QEHXsRBSsQzmd6BAhTEAY&biw=1366&bih=651&dpr=1 Total number of retail outlets in the UK in 2022 317,005 So that's your reason for stating that you thought I was a liar?! Because you'd never read anything like it before on the forum?! That's pathetic. That is not a reason. Almost as pathetic as your "public spirited" comment - what difference would it make you knowing the branch locations? Obviously I could tell you, but why should I? You're just stalling, scrabbling to get out of the hole you've dug for yourself. And as for your "one shoplifting event per retail outfit per year"...well, that's just a joke. Tell that to the manageress of the Co-op branch who, with black humour, added that she wished the 'lifters would "at least leave the wire baskets before they scarpered...." So again, back to you. I asked you why you felt the need to state that I was lying. I'm still waiting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How - as you are seemingly reluctant to reveal even the general area of the branch locations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoxLady Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Looks as if some of the recent comments about user longcol have been deleted, presumably after some kind of a complaint about the content. By his own request, mayhap. What a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
