For those that are interested, there is a group on FB called Convid-19 Profiteers. It is designed to name & shame shops etc who are blatantly profiteering & get them reported to the CMA.(Competition & Markets Authority). Its this Dept who can prosecute shops, NOT Trading Standards.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Doubling price for additional item may be official solution for some essential items. One pack of mince £4. Second will be £8. Third £16. So 3 pack of mince will cost £28 Not good news for the shops. Additional cost should go to charity for Covid.. Good in theory, i know not easy for practice..

Shops could do with generously proportioned 'Sergeant Majors' with booming voices, patrolling the aisles and berating all those who are stockpiling. We need a Hong Kong-style police force, but obviously without the virus bit.

If such abhorrent behaviour persists, it will be the time for tough as ball bearing 'Sergeant Major' types, stern in appearance with high-decibel voices, booming down the aisles and taking swift and decisive action against those who continue to ignore Government advice.

Sainsbury’s charge £5.50 a kilo of chicken breast so 10 kg for £60 is not a massive rip off. Surely the guy buying the whole box is the person that should be questioned here

Those Muslim butchers are cheaper (I’ve only bought mutton there a couple of times years ago) so it would be less than Sainsbury’s but I agree with what you said.
