No Sense of Right and Wrong! - David Lammy Should Not Even Be A Parish Councillor.

The London mayoral candidate wants the law to be changed so the seriousness of shoplifting is decided by the impact on the victim - rather than the monetary value of the item stolen. To make his point, he said: 'The impact of a £150 theft, for example, would be far greater on an independent corner shop than on Fortnum & Mason (pictured), yet this is not reflected under the current Act.' Last night the idea was condemned as 'completely wrong' by experts who warned it would make shoplifters more likely to target supermarkets. (Mail) You see David, stealing is inherently wrong!
