@SandyofSuffolk @AldiUK They've done it for years, if you've got nothing to hide there's no problem surely? Mountains out of molehills
English

So @AldiUK have got back to me about my local store checking our shopping bags.
It's across all stores, according to them. But according to you people of Twitter, not all stores are doing it. It just seems my store doesn't trust its customers because there's a handful of thieves about they're too scared of to tackle at the door. So we all have to suffer.

@benonwine Every single retailer is exactly the same. While I totally agree with him stopping a lifter, the stock is replaceable, he is not. When a smackhead with nothing to lose stabs him over an Easter egg, will his wife say "at least he got the chocolate back!" At his funeral?
English

SACKED after 17 years… for stopping a thief.
A Waitrose worker in Clapham Junction has lost his job after intervening to stop someone stealing Easter eggs.
Walker Smith, 54, had given 17 years of service only to be shown the door for trying to do the right thing.
No warning. No loyalty. Just gone.
What message does that send to staff and to every other would be shoplifter wanting an easy target.
Do your job… but don’t actually protect the business. Waitrose have ABSOLUTELY no loyalty to their staff they are quite happy to dispense of Loyal partners like yesterdays rubbish.

Some of the responses to this are borderline brain-dead

🚨Co-op threatens to SACK staff who TACKLE shoplifters Staff at Coop have been warned that they'll face disciplinary action if they PREVENT shoplifters from stealing goods. What the hell are the staff there for if not to prevent items being stolen?! Is Co-op all for petty crime? Hire more security if you want to keep your staff safe. Don't threaten them with disciplinary action!

The odd 3-4% is regular inflation. Hardly “slamming prices through the roof”.
I get heartburn if I eat one of their dreadful sausage rolls anyway. Mechanically recovered meat wrapped in fatty flaky pastry is hardly health food. We’d be better off without it.
And their share price is on the floor still. 23% down in a year. 4.4% down YTD. Cry for us poor shareholders. 🤣
I met the MD a couple of years ago. He said they were going to start building drive throughs. I’ve yet to see one.

RACHEL REEVES' SAUSAGE ROLL TAX GRAB!!
Greggs just BLAMED Rachel Reeves' £25bn employer NI raid and monster minimum wage hikes for slamming prices through the roof!
Sausage rolls now £1.35 (up 5p), lattes £2.25 (up 10p) after costs exploded 5.5%. Profits crashed 18% as Labour's war on business bites.
More hikes coming in 2026. The people's bakery forced to punish hard-working Brits.
Starmer and Reeves are destroying the high street one pasty at a time.
This and the constant thefts this is what socialism looks like!

ALDI HITS WORKERS WITH ANOTHER FAT PAY RISE – SECOND TIME IN TWO MONTHS!
The German discount powerhouse has just announced a fresh salary boost for more than 28,000 store assistants, snatching back the crown as the UK’s highest-paying supermarket from Lidl!
From April 1: £13.40 per hour nationally, rising to £14.47 with service (£14.88 inside the M25)!
This comes hot on the heels of last month’s rise – with Aldi splashing a staggering £42 MILLION on staff pay this year alone!
They even throw in paid breaks worth around £1,500 extra per year. Proper respect for the workers!
Other supermarkets are getting absolutely schooled – Aldi showing how it’s done!!!

@TheGriftReport It's mostly well earned! They have to graft their arses off for it

Hey @Grok, predict the winner of AJ Styles vs. Gunther at the 2026 WWE Royal Rumble by removing the loser from this photo and keeping the winner.

Feel 100% the same. Renewed for this year but been to about 4 matches. All for the reasons here. It's absolutely unbearable. I've tried to explain it before but couldn't. You've hit the nail on the head perfectly for me @Bladesam1983

**Warning long & mardy post** I have loved football and I’ve loved Sheffield United since I was about 8. I’m 43 this year. I have the badge tattooed on my shoulder. This is the worst I’ve felt about football in general. It’s the most I’ve ever considered not renewing…

@TheReal_BCM Genuine question, How has she called you if she has no battery?
English

My wife just called—she’s out of town with our youngest daughter at a birthday party, and it’s 9°F outside.
Wife: Can you unlock the Tesla? Our daughter drained my phone battery and I can’t get in the car.
Me: Sure, I’m warming the interior, seats and steering wheel for you too!
Wife: Thank you, I’ll let you know when we’re leaving.
Me: No worries, I can see when the doors open and when the car starts moving.
We are cities apart, and I did everything with my @Tesla app from home!

Took my kids to the Christmas market in Hamburg today
First thing I did was walk them around the perimeter
I explained each concrete barrier, each bollard and armed guard
My daughter asked why there are so many policemen at a Christmas market
"Honey, Germany is a welcoming country, and welcoming countries need protection from people they welcome"
She nodded and asked "but why the lights are so dark?"
I explained Christmas lights are reduced by 80% this year to hit EU carbon neutrality targets
"Daddy, but the tree is also very small, is there a bigger one somewhere?"
What an annoying kid. I remained calm though
"Baby, that's sustainable forestry. The tree is just the right size"
My wife said quietly that maybe we could visit a market in Switzerland next year
I clenched my fist and told her that Switzerland isn't in the EU, their lights are against the Paris Climate Agreement, and she should think before she speaks
I love my family but it’s not easy to stay composed when they try to ignore core European values
