00:00I feel sorry for the shops because they've got guys on the security.
00:05You can only do so much.
00:07They're not paid to enforce the law.
00:09They can stop people.
00:11But I think the police haven't got the resources.
00:15So really you need proper more wardens maybe.
00:20Well, more could be done, but there's a but to it, you see,
00:23because things have gone up so much and people haven't got the money
00:27and they've got to feed the kids, haven't they?
00:28Maybe the law needs looking at and a change in the law
00:31which gives security guards a bit more power maybe
00:35to at least try and apprehend someone or keep them there.
00:41You can't just let people walk in with stuff and walk out.
00:44So there's got to be a solution to that somewhere, hasn't there?
00:46You've got to clamp down. You've got to punish people.
00:49I don't know how they're going to do it
00:50because you can't talk to them in prison because there's no room.
00:53And they know this, so they're just playing on you.
00:56But, you know, we all pay for it in the end.
00:58The place has gone up.
00:59The place has gone up.
