Britain's shoplifters are 'out of control' as security guard claims 'justice isn't enough'

UK - A high street security guard has lifted the lid on what it's like being on the front line of Britain's “shoplifting epidemic”. Yesterday, the Daily Star reported how nearly 290,000 shoplifting cases remained unsolved in 2024-25, as per an analysis by the House of Commons library.
The data revealed that 55.5% of investigations in England and Wales failed to identify a suspect, while only 18.3% led to a charge.
It also claimed that a total of 289,464 cases were closed with no suspect identified across forces in England and Wales in 2024-25, a rise from 245,337 in 2023-24. The analysis, conducted for the Liberal Democrats, suggests that on average, 793 offences went unsolved each day.
And now a security guard who has been manning to doors of Britain's high street stores for around two years has opened up on the horrors he faces daily.
Kane Manning, 27, who once appeared on the Jeremy Kyle show, said: “It’s getting out of control, we are seeing death threats and retail losing millions a year across the whole chain.

“Shoplifting is out of control, they go for alcohol or meat so they can sell get drugs, there’s a lot of homeless people in England, they have nothing to lose. Justice isn’t enough, they will keep going at it until they get what they want.
“If they don’t get away with it at one store because security guard banned them, they carry on and go to next store until they get what they want. It’s terrible.”
