Two men have pleaded guilty to stealing £20,000… worth of biscuits

More Jammy Dodgers than Artful Dodger.

Two Liverpudlian men have admitted in court to stealing no less than £20,000 worth of biscuits from Burton’s Biscuits in Wales last summer.

The two men were apprehended after an abandoned trailer packed with Chocolate Fingers and Jammy Dodgers was found in Warrington.

The two men, aged 25 and 35 respectively, will be sentenced next month.

One of the men also admitted his part in trying to steal 2,000 cases of lager. It doesn’t seem entirely fair to blame these men for their crimes, when it is very clear that they are trying to feed a very hungry giant.

The mystery of who hijacked a 10 tonne drunk remains unsolved.
