A shoplifter of steaks told a district judge how he had stayed off drugs since May 2021. Christopher Hall, 37, of Tithe Barn Court, Newark, told Judge Sunil Khanna of his struggles since he stole £29 worth of steaks from Morrisons, King's Road, Newark, on October 11 last year.
Although he did not give a reason behind the theft, which he pleaded guilty to on Tuesday , he told how he has fines he is already paying. He pays those every Monday and had had to borrow money to come to Nottingham Magistrates' Court today. He said he was now "£10 out of pocket", on Universal Credit, and living with his pensioner mum in a one-bed flat in Newark. "I won't be able to eat for the day," he said as he was invited to address the judge.
"Drugs are no longer an issue", Hall added. The judge told him it seemed to him he could stay out of trouble as he conditionally discharged him for six months, ordered he pay compensation to Morrisons for the steak, and a victim surcharge of £26.

Asda and Morrisons limit sales of some fruit and vegetablesSupermarkets face shortages of some fresh produce, but Tesco and others are not limiting sales. You quote a person saying 'it's not brexit or at least I dont think so'. You don't mention in Europe there are no shortages of these fruits & veg. Can you explain this? Do the tomatoes bound for EU countries ripen happily while those destined for UK &Ireland fall from the vine? It’s a relatively new phenomenon to expect to eat summer veg in the winter. Here we are folks. This Tory government and Brexit has finally brought back something nostalgic for you from the Second World War. Rationing. Ah, back to the good old days finally. None of this new-fangled access to plentiful food lark, we managed before.
