Let’s be honest - we’ve all walked past the dodgy table at a boot sale.

The one with knock-off perfume, meat sweating in the sun, or suspiciously cheap makeup. It’s a bargain, they say. Just don’t ask where it’s from.

Every time you buy that £3 razor or that fake branded lipstick, you’re fuelling a crime wave. That meat didn’t fall off the back of a lorry - it was stolen from a shop struggling to keep the lights on. The tools? Taken from the vans of working tradespeople, whose livelihoods depend on them.

It’s not just petty theft.........
