I don't agree with that.....if "I" see it happening then I will report it...I will not confront them..
I think they should employ more store detective ,who you would never know were....just look like a customer...

Re: Shop lifting.
There has been much talk about high street shops closing for reasons of taxes and lack of parking.If this continues, is it possible that the vast majority of shops will close down, to be replaced by online shopping?
What on earth will the criminal shoplifters do then?

Purleeese!
Just don't be snide, keep your nose out.
For all you know the shop staff may even be in cahoots with the thief, it happens trust me.
Anyway nobody, and I do mean nobody likes a grass.

That's why I watched one shoplifter in Lidl,walk out with fresh chicken,on the shopping tray,that was under her pushchair.
I have to say,you must be a very busy man...either that or you have a great deal of "inside" information..regarding the staff being involved,sounds like you make this up as you go along.
no one likes a "grass"...I don't mind that...I won't stand by,watch shoplifters taking their pick,while I pay for my shopping.

Perhaps surreptitiously take a photo of them on your phone, then call the police yourself?

Really? Enforcement Officers do.
That is how we prevent Terrorism and Child Sex Abuse.
