Some of the price increases relate to ever-increasing theft. People are thieving more as often they are struggling to afford to eat. I saw an old lady in the Marks and Spencer petrol station shop shoving food into her shopping buggy and walk out the door.

@meggie it's sad that people have to steal to eat. I feel for them tbh.

@meggie Soo they increase prices to make up for theft, meanwhile that just increases theft.

Where does that cycle stop?

@Punches exactly. As a society you shouldn't force people into poverty then punish them for it.
