I couldn’t see a thread, which was surprising…

But, anyway, left wing muppets stealing from supermarkets and giving the products (stolen goods!) to food banks. They can afford it, apparently.

So why not just buy the stuff yourself and donate it?

If I helped myself to stuff out of their house, I'm sure they would call the police.

Stupid people doing stupid things in a stupid way for stupid reasons based on fallacy.

The usual bunch of crusties, no doubt having their strings pulled by one of the millionaire/billionaire types they think they're acting against.

Take Back Power denied paying for the items but said activists had “set up a stall that was technically still on the property of the supermarket” meaning "no crime was committed, because none of the produce actually ended up leaving the site".
Not sure they know the definition of theft.

Boxes stacked high with focaccia, hummus, brie and olive oil. Oops forgot the aged balsamic too...

You know the daily essentials.

BBC news reported it as the items were taken to local food banks..

I did note that at least one of the protesters seems to be a "professional activist" having also glued herself to the M4 or something as part of a just stop oil protest and some other things.
