This raises an interesting question, of course. Can one steal that which is by its nature free? :rubchin:

Presumably the thieves did not undergo the rigorous means-testing for which food banks are renowned. So it probably was stealing, to all intents and purposes.

No right, permission or authority to take it, innit.

must be some desperate ****ers out there to nick tins of supermarket own label baked beans, etc

I would argue that the very act of having to steal this stuff would suggest need, wouldn't it? And therefore they qualify.

By the way, I'm assuming that the bit about the rigorous means testing is sarcasm?
