They haven't got the manpower to do their normal job, let alone crowd control at supermarkets.

There will still me more than enough twats on the loose to keep the coppers way to busy to deal with anything but the worst outbreaks of handbags at the supermarket.

No bloody tuna the last week or so. I normally eat it three or four times a week. Shortages of pasta in supermarkets but I went to a deli who had plenty. Turkish and Kurdish mini markets down here are well stocked too. I guess most people are lazy and just go to the large supermarkets.

Bread is a bit of an issue so we just got a load of self-raising flour and will make our own (that is, dump the ingredients in the bread maker and wait four hours)

self raising flour?
Good luck with that then!

Just been to the local Asda and there’s barely anything on the shelves. If it’s like this tomorrow I’m actually concerned about food.

don’t have a lot in and pretty low on money at the minute, so it’s a worry

He has a point,we don't know who are being twats and who is shopping for older family or friends,i have ben doing online and getting myusual amount but some for my elderlly neighbours as well,i have set them up with onlie shopping but it is a 3 week wait for that

There is no point having a stand up fight with people without k owing which they are

I have started shopping for my 80 plus neighbours. Just ask them what they need when I go out.
Can’t always get it but when I can I do.

Nice one.

The rules for elderly shoppers should stay in place for the future. 8am-10am for over 70’s.
Don’t see the harm at all.
