JOINT PRESS RELEASE

SHOP LIFTERS STAY AWAY FROM ATHERSTONE

The Winter and January Sales are one of the busiest and important times of year for retailers right across the West Midlands.

But as shoppers take to our High Streets so unfortunately it seems do shop lifters – in increasing numbers!

Nationally retail theft* has risen significantly [29%] in recent years [see Figure 1] a problem recognised by the government as having a serious impact on retail businesses, their employees and local economies.

Yet one small market town - Atherstone - with its bustling high street of independent retail businesses, supermarkets cafes and bars, has managed to buck this national trend
One year ago, [June 2023] shoplifting rates in Atherstone were on the rise, at around 18/1000 and running at around four times the County average.

Now thanks to their state-of-the-art CCTV network, manned by a team of experienced operators with direct links with to local shops and the police, utilising the TownWatch radio scheme and new DISC app, this year shoplifting rates in the town centre have fallen over the last year by 43%.

Town Councillor, Gwyn Short who chairs the CCTV partnership group [a group established between Atherstone Town Council, North Warwickshire Borough Council and the Safer Neighbourhood Team (North Warwickshire East) to jointly manage the CCTV network.]

We know that many small businesses in our high street cannot afford to lose thousands of pounds through retail theft or to hire security staff.

This “real time approach to tackling crime in our town prevents retail crime before it happens, and fast-tracks a police response when incidents happen “

Borough Councillor Ray Jarvis [Chair of the Safer Communities Committee, North Warwickshire Borough Council] added

“As councils we have worked together over several years with the local police to establish this new system and we are proud of what has been achieved. As well as being a lovely and historic place to visit, Atherstone is now a much safer and secure place to shop – and this reduction in crime has benefited both local businesses and shoppers “

*Retail crime is defined as “criminal activities that specifically target retail establishments, such as shops, supermarkets, or shopping centres”

Furious Labour MPs demand water bosses donate their bonuses to charity following consumer bill hike.

Three Labour MPs from across England have reacted with fury to the announcement of water bill increases, by demanding water bosses donate their bonuses to charity this year.

Polly Billington MP (East Thanet), Rachel Taylor MP (North Warwickshire and Bedworth), and Danny Beales MP (Uxbridge and South Ruislip) said that water bosses should reflect on the failure of their companies, issue public apologies, and donate their bonuses to charity as a sign of goodwill to customers.

Polly Billington MP said that Southern Water boss Laurence Gosden should donate his £183,000 bonus to the Marine Conservative Society, given his company’s failure to prevent sewage from flowing into the seas around Thanet.

Southern Water billpayers are facing the highest bill increases in the country – 53% above inflation by 2030. The East Thanet MP said it was “a disgrace” that the company had been identified as at risk of collapse, despite billpayers’ hard-earned money being diverted to shareholders and a massive debt pile being allowed to build up at customers’ expense in recent years.

Rachel Taylor MP said her constituents would be left “scratching their heads” as to why Severn Trent boss Liv Garfield had been given the highest water executive pay packet in the country, totalling £3.2 million, despite Severn Trent having been forced to pay a £2 million fine for “reckless” pollution earlier this year. Her constituents were facing bill increases of 47% by 2030.

She said the Severn Trent CEO should donate her £584,000 bonus to the Rivers Trust, whose important campaign work has helped expose the environmental damage caused by irresponsible water companies.

And Danny Beales MP said he shared “his constituents’ sense of outrage” that Affinity Water bosses received £385,000 in bonuses this year when Uxbridge and South Ruislip residents’ bills were set to rise by 26% by 2030 and sewage continued to be pumped into the River Colne.

He said the payment of bonuses to Affinity executives was appalling when the company remained on a regulator watchlist over the state of its finances and called on CEO Keith Haslett to donate his bonus to the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust, who were working to protect wetland wildlife and habitats.

The MPs’ call for action from water bosses followed the announcement by the water regulator OFWAT that consumer water bills in England and Wales are set to rise by an average of 36% over the next five years to pay for urgently needed infrastructure improvements.

The dire state of Britain’s water infrastructure is a consequence of years of underinvestment under the previous Conservative government. In recent years water companies frequently racked up huge debts and paid out dividends to shareholders while simultaneously presiding over an unprecedented sewage pollution crisis.

Since Labour was elected to government in July, Environment Secretary Steve Reed has announced major legislation to crack down on water bosses and increase enforcement action against water companies.
