Oxford Uni students have been pinching cups and plates at posh weekly dinners, forcing two of its oldest colleges to launch a crackdown on thefts.
Balliol College - where former Prime Minister Boris Johnson studied - has lost so many crested cups and placemats at its swanky weekly three-course dinners that it has decided to stop using them altogether. Several students have been caught trying to smuggle items out, and 20 cups that vanished during an evening event are still missing.
And Magdalen College has warned students that if they do not return tableware in an amnesty it could be treated as theft, potentially landing privileged undergraduates with criminal records.
