"We are currently trying to find out from the Crown Prosecution Service why they believe that it is in the public interest to pursue a case against these three individuals, and will comment further when we are more fully informed."

 

:blink:

The law firm representing them is called Bindmans...

 

No fixed address you say?  This is a job for Rincewind.

The case has been dropped, now.

The supermarket said: "The store in question is next door to a police station. Iceland staff did not call the police, who attended on their own initiative.

"Nor did we instigate the resulting prosecution, of which we had no knowledge until the media reports of it appeared yesterday evening."

 

Our Police are wonderful.

Cheese, tomatoes and cakes?

 

What kind of a person goes through a bin and doesn't take the meat?

If you're going to steal from bins, at least steal from M&S bins. :ph34r:

Agreed, it was litter ally the worst joke I've read.

 

Yeah, reading this thread was such a waste of time.

I refuse to add any more puns.

Doing time for a waste crime, now that's a waste of time.

The amount of food supermarkets throw away is outrageous.

It's not their fault - we're a nation of twattish prannies who would happily try and sue a supermarket after falling ill from a slightly out-of-date prawn sandwich we took out their skip.

it is to an extent. they hardly reduce things till the few hours. i get the fact they don't want people just waiting and snatching it all up but taking 30p off something isn't going to make it fly off the shelves.

Probably the sort  who doesn't have a cooker in their back pocket.

 

 

Saw it earlier on a Facebook page but thought it was Tescos. I believe Sainsbury's donate any unused items/ Some restaurants do too.

Like others have said a waste of police time.

Is this part of the new advertising campaign?

"This isn't just moldy, rat chewed, vomit covered dumpster cheese, this is M&S moldy, rat chewed vomit covered dumpster cheese."

In some states in America people have been arrested for handing out food to the homeless. At least they have not gone that far in this country. They skipped the middle man and took it first.

I never expected to be arrested.... just assumed it was an invitation...

I see the bastards have already cleaned it out

The CPS decided a prosecution they thought was in the public interest was not in the public interested once the public took an interest.  Good to see they are in tune with common sense of the common man.

There's a charity called FoodCycle which, amongst other things, cooks up meals for those in need from the food that supermarkets would throw out. They had a deal with Sainsbury's last time I checked.
