Beergate: A Summary
Two males were observed removing free beer (estimated to be c.20 cans of an unknown brewer) from the First Lounge (South) at London Heathrow's Terminal 5 on Friday 30th June 2017 between the hours of noon and approximately 17:00. The two men are white and probably have in excess of 1600 Tier Points.
200 outraged posts on an airline-related online forum then wasted at least 1000 man-hours of British industry at a cost of over Ł100 due to middle-ranking executives having not much better to do than comment on this feat of potential drinking whilst being flown.
Anybody with any news on this treasonable crime should not bother calling CrimeStoppers on 0800 555 111. A reward of 6 cans of beer is available should the original beer cans be recovered.
Police are uninterested in talking to anyone in the vicinity at the time.
Any BREAKING NEWS on this front-page story will be added to this wiki immediately it happens

Just observed a couple in F Lounge ... guy kneels down to fridge (Spirits bar), opens Rucksack and starts loading soft Drinks into his bag, 8 to be precise. Then walks round to main buffett area and loads another bag with crisps. Then both walked out.

Well the truth is finally emerging.
You golds really are a world apart, seems most of you learned how to accumulate tier points while serving time in the Scrubs.
I'm waiting for cws or golfmad to be busted by the lounge dragons for loading eggs bennies into tupperware boxes in the CCR.
