Description Yahoo news, July 2022: “Desperate families are being forced to steal baby formula because of rapidly rising prices, the government has been told. Inflation in the UK has hit the highest levels recorded in decades, with prices rising by 9.1% in the year to May 2022. Speaking in the House of Commons, SNP MP Alison Thewliss claimed families are now resorting to stealing baby formula so that they can feed their children. Thewliss said: “One of the most worrying increases in food prices is for infant formula, some of which is now so expensive it is security tagged and kept behind the till because families have resorted to stealing it. “What is the government doing to make sure that infant formula is available to families who need it? Because at this price many cannot afford it at all.”” Or stealing booze, or anything really… we need to help each other survive, and grow the culture where we show solidarity.
