@ZackPolanski An emergency rally for a County Council by-election that was called weeks ago? Also that rally wasn't in the Cliftonville area. Do you even know the boundaries for the area?

We organised an emergency rally with less than 24 hours notice in Margate tonight.
Hundreds and hundreds of people on the beach ready to vote for Rob Yates & the Green Party Thursday from 7am-10pm
It's so close between the Green Party & Reform - and we're taking them on!

@vitt2tsnoc There are people with stupid number of points on their license because pulling it would lead to "exceptional hardship", like it's required to go to work and there's no other alternative. The record looks to be 229pts.

Jail her jail her jail her. Nobody else, NOBODY, would get away with the sheer level of driving offences, are we waiting until she kills someone?

@TheRealJamieKay Easter eggs then moved onto the Waitrose worker, now back to main topics, so illegal immigration and grooming gangs respectively.

Former UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher died on this day in 2013, causing celebrations across the United Kingdom.
While not confirmed, there is a chance that Thatcher, a noted fan of Big Daddy, watched The Rock vs. John Cena Twice in a Lifetime at WWE WrestleMania 29 just hours before her death.

@yusfarandtic Don't remember Restore at 12%. I remember a 10% but that had a big disclaimer by those polling. 4% is probably about right. Wouldn't be expecting much above that given they dont get much offline publicity.
English
Restore Britain supporting is collapsing. 12% then 8% then 7% now just 4%.
A complete waste of time and energy by a bitter millionaire with a n immature grudge just because he fell out with people.

@ediz1975 I get he probably didn't want it sat outside at risk of theft, but it'd probably be fine if he left it near the door inside within eyesight of a staffer, if he asked nicely.

@mattiasvision_ Based on that NF performance, not a chance.

@ryannxescc Us Eurofans were taken by surprise the first time we saw that. Reddits live threat was shocked. It was so clever.

@AllisonPearson Talk to someone working in retail, they can probably show you. Its a company policy. If you go against it, then it is breaching contract. He was warned and I'm almost certain he would have done specific training in this.
English
Waitrose sacked Walker Smith for trying to stop a shoplifter. Why did that principled action “breach his contract”?
HR is causing societal erosion. We need to restore consequences for theft.

@Matt_VickersMP @waitrose Sounds pretty standard non-intervention policy by Waitrose. We don't have all the facts apart from he has been warned at least once before. Have a chat with some supermarkets first before swinging the bat in an election time "tough on crime" tweet.
English
Walker Smith served Waitrose loyally for 17 years.
Fed up with witnessing blatant shoplifting, he stepped in to stop a thief stealing Easter eggs.
His reward?
He got sacked.
It is nothing short of disgraceful.
@waitrose, do the right thing and give him his job back.
English
@stefanbertin It got tracked early and they located all who were exposed. The system seemed to work. As we were told in the beginning, this isnt like Covid. Intense but limited, due to proximity required.
English
@Daily_Express If the reason for suspecting him was he was putting stuff in his bag then thats not enough to physically intervene. There has to be other reasons. Sometimes people use their bags if there are no baskets. In Brazil its apparently normal to use your own bag while shopping.

@skydemonuk @LeeHarris @waitrose They have to give a firm line, otherwise it'll encourage others to do the same, and eventually it'll go badly wrong.
English
@LeeHarris @waitrose At the end of the day, the person responsible for this is the @waitrose manager who should’ve said thanks that was very brave but please don’t do it again., but no, decided to make a big fuss and now someone is out of a job. Hopefully he will have a better time at Iceland.
English
🚨WONDERFUL NEWS! Iceland have offered a job to Walker Smith, the hero who was SACKED by @waitrose for stopping a shoplifter.
Well done Iceland. 👏👏👏
Waitrose should hang their heads in shame!
English
@DrMarianaClaire @LeeHarris @waitrose That will be consistent across all supermarkets. The specific wording might vary but the message will be the same. I suspect every store has had a situation like this. The public just aren't aware so its jarring.
English
@LeeHarris @waitrose The Iceland near where I live has the same 'policy' Staff are not to approach shoplifters.
English
@WWE God stopped The Demon during the Bloodline story. Makes a return kinda pointless.
English
@BackupLowe All well and good until the shoplifter turns on the member of staff who was told not to get involved, for their own safety. Now anyone nearby is at risk. The Right have such simple answers when they are never going to face such situations.
English
If a decent citizen in the process of preventing a theft gives the shoplifter a bloody nose, then so be it.
The Waitrose employee sacked for trying to prevent theft should be immediately reinstated and compensated.
If a criminal takes a kick? I won’t lose any sleep over it.

@Councillorsuzie They have a particular grudge against avocados and dates.

I wish they would send me a list of those items I would go and buy them. On principle.
