‘Driven to the end of their tether.’ Commissioning Editor at The Spectator, Lara Brown, says Marks and Spencer made a political statement calling on Sadiq Khan, saying ‘enough is enough’ and urging government support for policing shoplifting.

Witnesses in Clapham describe “anarchy”, youths flooding shops and streets, businesses locking doors while families hide inside. But we’re told it’s scaremongering to say London feels unsafe.

@TheSpursWatch And being watched intently.

Oh look, players being coached.

We are becoming immune to news like this because it now happens daily in Sadiq Khans London. Britain must make eliminating crime a national priority. People across our country should feel safe, not fearful.

Not Reform UK, not GB News – Marks & Spencer is now accusing Sadiq Khan of failing to get a grip on crime in London. That’s how mainstream the lawlessness has become.

'I don't know anyone who hasn't witnessed shoplifting in London in the last year.' GB News Political Correspondent Olivia Utley, assesses the fallout from Marks and Spencer urging Sadiq Khan and the Government to do more to tackle shoplifting.

Trump 🇺🇸 : Macron’s wife treats him badly, he is still recovering from the right to the jaw that she gave him. Macron 🇫🇷 : Trump’s remarks are not elegant or up to the standards of a world leader. What a dignified response to the clown👏🏻

Thank you to @marksandspencer for speaking up about crime. I hope other retailers follow.

London has reached the point where M&S has to write to the Mayor and the Home Secretary pleading for protection from violent mobs. That is a failed state, not a “world city”.

Marks & Spencer just said what everybody else in the country is thinking: “I keep hearing crime is falling, especially in London – something none of us believes, and very few people working in retail would see.”

BREAKING🚨: This is BASED 🗿 🇫🇷Macron: "We can't fix the situation just by bombings or by military operations. You have not delivered anything with same in Iraq and Afghanistan even after 20 yrs." Bro calmly telling to Trump that you're loser 😂

'This is not just crime, this is M&S crime' Mark Dolan and former Sun Editor Neil Wallis react to M&S' retail directors scathing attack on London Mayor Sadiq Khan for being soft on crime and high rates of shoplifting. 'A sign of his desperation' @mrmarkdolan

M&S boss Thinus Keeve blames Sadiq Khan directly He says the London mayor’s failure to tackle crime is behind the Clapham mob attack. Over 300 feral teens swarmed the high street, looting shops, headbutting staff, throwing ammonia in workers’ faces and lighting fires on the Common. Families barricaded inside M&S and other stores in terror as youths flouted police dispersal orders. Keeve: “Crime is falling? None of us believes that… we see the absolute opposite.” Is he right?

I’m in Clapham today, after the M&S looting. Khan said there’d be ‘enhanced policing’. There wasn’t a single officer in sight. The community feel let down. Have a listen 👇
