Inside Boots' 24-hour shoplifting CCTV hub catching thieves in the act 

So most companies then

So boots dodges taxes??? The owners are paying themselves?

If staff under paid, Walk and go work somewhere else.

The rich elites steal from all of us every day

So.... it's OK to steal from the rich?

Your post translates to a subtle cry of "I am a petty thief, please let me steal items unabated".

@@bannedinfinity5789 yes

@@bannedinfinity5789 It is when they steal from workers by paying the lowest possible wages, then give the profits to already grotesquely rich shareholders.

Burglaries I suppose.

From experience, the shoplifters are drug addicts and criminals

What an astoundingly dumb comment. It's organised theft, they sell the products on.

But it’s not is it. No difference between Boots or a small family business - stealing is stealing and there’s no excuse. Have some integrity.

@@rolandgrant90 I agree. From sandwich, to deodorant, to perfume to.........your house! Petty thieves seems to get sympathy due to poverty or drug habits, but they are skanks, and they will rob their own mothers. All crime starts somewhere, and then escalates.

😂😂😂😂

We do need higher wages, but people still shoplift in Switzerland where the lowest paid worker gets around £21 per hour (that's minimum wage, but typically £30+ an hour is not uncommon as bar staff or something similar.) You need equity, lower cost of living, higher wages will just be eaten up by an increase in rent.

LOL

Low wages is but only one component to theft. Some people do it to feed their drug addiction, for the sheer thrill of it, greed, narcissistic entitlement, or because they have impulsive tendencies.

Most shoplifters in my workplace is done by drug addicts in Brighton

​@@199019852007 i thought everyone in Brighton was a drug addict. Your police literally walk past people doing drugs on the street and do nothing.

So people who can’t be bothered to wait in a shop to be served just steal the things instead? Interesting..

Brexit Benefits

WHICH STORES?

Absolutely true, NHS cuts to pharmacies mean cuts to staff

Staff are expensive

And who pays for that system the working public? Yeah the working man has to pay to fix addicts problems good one.

Some addicts that steal are already recieving help. It's not as simple as that.

@@scoobywho710 Did you forget about the NHS and the fact that most of our nation's billion-pound corporations are tax exempt? The money is there.

@@ActuallyHoudini of corse the moneys there. But I could think of a hundred different things that it could be spent on. To improve the life for the people who don’t steal. And work hard to support there family’s. Why spend it on people who clearly arnt willing to change

Yes. The holes in the welfare saftey net are now far too wide and the net is far too low

What's that? You want a pay increase to pay your rent and food bills? Sorry, no can do, think of the economy!

@@Xune2000 🤡🤡🤡

Finally someone says it

Exactly... they must remember to be reasonable when liberating goods from shelves ☺️

They need to take in a calculator Young dump people And drugie people.

£199.99 every time my friends

*£633M 😬

That figure will change rapidly come the recession

True, but if they didn't spend that money then the losses would probably be much, much more than £650 million.

So you're proud to be a thief and a nasty little scumbag? If I were you, I'd keep that to myself.

😂

It's pretty much a game for me at this point. Nothing beats a Saturday spree 😂

Chad

So your a thief? And you are proud of that? Thieving is the lazy poor persons way of making money without trying hard. Thieves are pure scum.

I'd never get involved in someone shoplifting....I have worked in shops where people have been jabbed with syringes over being challenged... do you think the store will care if you catch something???? I'd only intervene and I have when pensioners have had their purse stolen

@@peachmelba1637 well I felt sorry for the two members of Staff trying to wrestle the alcohol out of his hand so I blocked his escape from the store as I said never again

This is why online shopping will take over. The mass hoards of criminal scum find it harder to rob when there are no more shops.

Police will not attend. Waste of time calling.

​@@koby4094The police won't do anything about it unless the stolen goods are worth over £200. All the store can do is ban the person from entering again and seek a civil recovery to recover the losses caused by the shoplifter.

@@sambee8982 what a farce.

@@koby4094 I know right, it's probably because the police have got their hands tied on solving more serious crimes and think that it's a waste of time filling in paperwork on minor crime incidents.

The money the stores save by making YOU do the work far exceeds the money they lose at self-service tills.

Let's just teal everything then. Where do you live? We need to know since we are taking everything you own. [insert excuse to detract from life's own failures]. Nobody needs to steal baby formula as EVERY mother is given tax credits or help to feed their baby. Benefits at the very least pay you enough to eat. I should know.

Bellend, they don’t steal baby formula they steal hair straighteners, perfume, skincare. Stop framing it as down on their luck parents trying to feed their darling kids. It’s greedy little pricks that want something for free.

Amen to that

🤣🤣🤣

Lol 😆 damn shame isn't it

Maybe the tart should’ve used a condom before having three kids she couldn’t feed or look after properly.

damned criminals, using hydraulic lift tables to overturn the entire store

I can't say I agree with you that the government isn't responsible. They are entirely responsible for the chaos that is in our lives, in our homes and is out there in the roads, streets and shops. It's called policing.

​@w 🤣🤣

@@amjidali588 W?

😂😂 He's gucci dw the police r dealing with other matters.

Most surprising thing I learnt today.

Ones that offer late night pharmacy

exactly

Because the likes of Amanda Bynes, Kim Richards, Winona Ryder, and Lindsay Lohan are so poor right? It's not just poor people that steal. Arseholes do. And it's shoplifters that cost money and raise prices everywhere for the ordinary taxpayers like me to suffer.

😭 Tears. Then you worked in an abusive environment. Every worker has to be treated with dignity and respect regardless of others shoplifting.

@@user-sl4wj6te6j They don’t want to spend any more than they have to, just as a shoplifter doesn’t want to spend at all

Are you saying that you support shoplifting?

Theft isn't ok and it contributes to higher prices for honest people.

@@CriticalTheoryIsNonsense prices won’t be reduced is there are less or no shoplifting. Only the profit will increase and go to the shareholders.

​@@ao4514Yes.

@@ao4514 I'm in support of people. Not profiteering asshole companies

You can always tell the political persuasion of someone when they support rampant crime and excuse it with ''yeah but they are poor, it's the tories fault". These people are unable to understand that theft and crime affects everyone. Thieves are pure scum of the earth.

That's make it right then.

@@ImranKhan-dp8iyNo it doesn’t. Each store gets an allocated budget and if their profit is being hammered by theft, it’s the staff who get made redundant. So while everyone says people shouldn’t go without in one breath, they then cause them to go without in the other breath by saying theft is ok. And the more theft there is, the higher the prices and the more people go with less.

People not taking personal responsibility for themselves and going out to do an honest days’ work is the key cause. There are so many unfilled vacancies in the UK job market and already very low unemployment - the jobs are there for people to do, but in so many cases people are too lazy to go out and do them. People may have developed addictions and obviously one feels sympathy for them, but it’s still ultimately their fault. The state is not liable for offering wraparound care for everyone in that predicament - it can obviously do what it can, but its remit will always be limited because there is a finite amount of money that can be raised by taxation - it’s not as simple as increasing corporation tax and tax on high-net-worth individuals as there are so many legal instruments and tax havens outside of the UK’s jurisdiction that prevent it. Ultimately so much of this boils down to the culture we’ve developed where we shun the notion of personal responsibility and seek to blame extraneous factors.

There is no excuse for racism

@@stephenstumbke1721 that's not the point I was trying to make and also the whites have left the best recorded history of racism but ok

Unintelligent conclusion

In America, it's spelled "fentanyl".

One store in America that's on RU-vid has their items behind screens because of shoplifting as it was so bad he had to do that to one of his stores

Yes to everything and it's a total disgrace of your comment

What's that got to do with this video?

why not make it 100 times more, they can't pay anyway.

That's genius. Give people fines they can't afford to pay, other than through more shoplifting.

@@Haflafbaf they can be forced to do free community service, all proceeds going to recovering the money lost through theft.

they just won't pay it. why do you think they were stealing int the first place? to spend money?

it is better to be quite and not remembered, then to make a comment and be remembered as a complete fool
