Activists Steal Food for Charity, Spark Debate

0:00On March 14, activists with the group take back power, hit supermarkets across the UK today, taking food from stores like Tesco, Sainsbury's, and Morrison's and cities including Manchester, London, Exeter, and Truro. They started around 8.30 a.m. and say they delivered the goods strayed to local food banks for those in need. The group wants to tax the risk to help fix Britain and points to huge pay gaps, like supermarket bosses earning hundreds of times more than regular. Workers, they've pulled off bold stunts before, such as messing with displays at the Ritz Hotel, and even the Crown Jewels case. Public reaction on mine is split, with some calling it straight up theft and others backing the plush to help the hungry, though many worry about store. Workers getting caught in the middle, police in London checked one incident and said the food was paid for, but the activists insist it wasn't. No arrests have happened so far, even after security stepped in at a couple spots. This comes amid a shoplifting surge in Britain, with police recording over

1:02530,000 cases last year, one every minute and most, going unsolved. As these Robin Hood style actions ramp up, questions linger about how far protests can go before crossing into crime, especially with plans for more. Big disruptions ahead.
