Starbucks worker admits having to steal Poundland tampons amid UK cost of living crisis

A woman has admitted stealing tampons from Poundland amid the UK's crippling cost of living crisis.

Izabella Malik, who works in a Starbucks coffee shop, admitted having to steal tampons because she can’t afford the city's high living costs and took to social media to express her anger after being left with no savings despite being happy with her wages as she earns £1500 a month.

The video, posted on izabellamalik ’s account with the caption “living in the UK is a scam”, has since gone viral with more than 80,000 likes and almost 20,000 comments, reports MyLondon.
