Robert Jenrick confronts man for ‘stealing Dr Pepper from Greggs’ in Brixton
Robert Jenrick confronted an alleged shoplifter who he said had taken a bottle of Dr Pepper from a Greggs in Brixton, London. Reform UK’s treasury spokesman released a video of himself on Friday (2 October), showing him approaching a man and telling him: “ I think you just nicked that, didn't you? Well, we just watched you take it. Do you wanna give it back?” The man denies stealing the drink and responds: “Yeah, I’ll give it back.” When Mr Jenrick asked “Why do you think you’re above the law?”, the alleged thief replied: “Because they always give us drinks.” The politician later put the drink in a Greggs fridge. Jenrick previously released a video of himself confronting alleged fare dodgers on the London Underground, as he claimed lawbreakers are “chipping away at society”.
