Tabloid headline of the day

Haven't done this for some time but this is the Express is quite topical what with yesterday's news on the economy and the PM advising us on food this week

SECURITY TAGS ON CHICKENS TO FOIL THIEVES says the paper

CHICKEN rustling is alive and well in Britain’s supermarkets.
The problem is so great that one retailer has begun putting security tags on all its chickens.
As food prices soar and family ­budgets are squeezed ever tighter, ­poultry has become a prime target for shoplifters.
This has forced Sainsbury’s to tag the Sunday lunch favourites with the sort of security devices usually reserved for expensive Champagnes and spirits or high-value clothing


I'm sure this is serious but I can't help but see the funny side
