Two crooks swiped wine from a Sainsbury’s which was the second raid on the same store in less than a fortnight.

The hooded pair of thieves loaded bottle after bottle of plonk into their Ikea bag-for-life.

They crouched down in the aisle near the fridges to loot the booze.

Workers helplessly watched on, as shocked shoppers filmed on their mobile phones.

They then calmly walked out without their faces covered.

One customer said: “Smile you’re on camera.”

She then asked the staff: “Why didn’t you hold them?”

It happened at the Sainsbury’s, in Wapping Lane, Wapping, east London, yesterday (16 Jan).

Local, Colin Lingham, fumed: “Don’t even cover their faces.

“As they know it won’t matter.

“This has got to stop.”

Peter Reid said: “Makes me wonder why I bother to work my b*llocks off everyday and pay for things.”

“And see how far I get.”
