Major supermarkets in the UK are joining forces with the police in a radical data sharing tie-up known as Project Pegasus that supporters hope will cut down on retail crime. However, opponents say it marks a civil liberties intrusion.

I have a radical idea to prevent shoplifting, wait, hear me out: Make sure that people have enough money to afford food.

...also, don't exit the EU without a plan in place on how to actually feed the country. I know I know that might involve setting some land aside for things other than manicured lawn, as well as making sure you have a workforce to actually grow shit (for which being in the EU would be a great option) but what must that must: You'll have to re-train all those lawn manicurists.
