Home Secretary’s silence on the shoplifting epidemic is disappointing says Usdaw 03 October 2023 Retail trade union Usdaw has expressed disappointment because, on their keynote speeches to the Conservative conference, neither the Justice Secretary or Home Secretary said a single word about the epidemic of retail crime sweeping our shops and high streets. This despite Usdaw and 88 retailers coming together at the weekend and calling for urgent government action. Minister is deeply irresponsible to suggest that ‘citizen’s arrests’ are the answer to the shoplifting epidemic says Usdaw 03 October 2023 Retail trade union Usdaw has condemned the Crime and Policing Minister for his reported comments to a Conservative conference fringe meeting where it is reported that he called on the public to make citizen’s arrests in supermarkets if they saw shoplifters.

Rising prices continue to devalue wages – Usdaw calls for a new deal for workers to tackle the cost of living crisis 20 September 2023 Retail trade union Usdaw is calling for the Government to address the cost of living crisis, after today’s inflations figures show that wages continue to be devalued by prices rising faster than incomes.
