Police should have a zero tolerance approach to shoplifting, and investigate even if the stolen goods are worth less than £200, the policing minister said.Mr Philp said, of thefts worth under £200: “The law says that this is still a criminal offence and police should be enforcing it comprehensively.”
He added: “It should not be tolerated at any level – I expect a zero tolerance approach to this criminality.” Tesco boss Ken Murphy has called for a change in the law to make abuse or violence towards retail workers an offence across the UK
