Activists Arrested Over ‘Plans for Mass Shoplifting Campaign’
6th March 2026
Fifteen activists from a group behind stunts targeting the Ritz and the Crown Jewels have been arrested on suspicion of planning a mass shoplifting campaign, police said.
As often happens, ‘activism’ is a Clever Plastic Disguise for robbery. (Kinda like socialism, if you think about it.)
The Metropolitan Police said that members of Take Back Power had been planning a campaign to steal from supermarkets before redistributing the goods.
Ah, yes—’redistributing’.
Activists gathered at the Quaker Meeting House in Westminster on Thursday evening to take part in “non-violent direct action training”, the force said.
They sound like American Democrats of Color.
