Holy fuck🤣🤣🤣 I thought stings were reserved for violent criminals

Its due to increasing budgets and lazy policing.

The stolen meat one really annoyed me as its targeting the working class while inflation is in full effect

i agree that it shouldn't be a police priority; but i would still not visit a pub using black market meat... i like cheap food, but i love my intestines more lol

[–] squid_slime@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

No I wouldn't either and the place was a dive but the meat wasn't being sold for the pub to serve, police went in there trying to sell to anyone that would buy, the land lady just happened to be the one interested in buying the stollen meat

Yeah. We're just so far away from the point that cracking down on illegal food should be a priority that I find that idea completely insane
