    Because others can’t buy meat because some bellends wanted to steal it to sell during Christmas?

    I don’t give a fuck about M&S losing profit. I do give a fuck about obvious crime that puts people out…

      Are you unaware of the amount of meat that gets thrown out by grocery stores? In the US, it’s billions of pounds a year.

      I highly doubt they ran out of the store with an amount that did more than make someone’s job easier that night, or force someone to pivot their dinner to a different cut of meat.

      Like, I get it. I do. It’s a lot of money, and it’s against the law. But the idea that someone is going to go hungry because of the action is ridiculous.
