Klepto: A Hoisters Handbook

Synopsis

Mickey Mac, one of the Tory Governments Lost generation - thrown onto Northern England's stag-heaps late 70's early 80's - got fed up being preached at to get on his bike, be greedy and become a Capitalist. Mickey clicked that he had to do whatever he had to do! If The Government were willing to shit all over his doorstep then, why not return the compliment! Moving away to seek work, with the local area and population decimated, then getting ripped off on a number of cash-in-hand building sites, Mickey fell into serial Shoplifting in wealthy London to try and fast-track away from a life of Dole-drums. London shoplifting (Hoisting) Led to 'Hoisting around the World', where every wealthy country got viewed as a possible Hoisting destination; every designer shop was seen as an opportunity; and finally, everyone carrying cash became a customer wanting to save!
