This seems to be the next level of culture wars. They have no interest in researching why there is an increase in shoplifting occurrences.

There’s certainly a huge correlation between people who commit crimes of survival and people the Tories don’t want to be able to vote (for which you now need photo ID).
And a huge correlation between not being a white guy and false matches with facial recognition.
Theres like a bazillion movies, books and games telling us why overarching surveillance is a bad thing.
They think the people who are shoplifting have passports?
The people who are shoplifting (in the main part) are desperate people who are really at rock bottom. The money being spent on this could be used in much better ways.
