Trolley.co.uk (which is usually a reliable source of info about what's stocked in major supermarkets) doesn't list any canned shrimps. Here's what's found by that site:

After you've removed the kids' sweets ('shrimps and bananas'?!!), cat food. soups, sauces (and even a Lego toy!) from the search results, you're basically left with chilled or frozen products. Sorry!
Most of the big supermarkets used to stock Princes Shrimps in Brine but they ceased doing so in 2016 due to concerns from environmentalists about the fishing techniques used by Princes, which were regarded as non-sustainable. The product is no longer listed on the Princes website.

If labourers were eating cat food straight from the tin, they were most likely foreign workers, middle eastern or eastern European, I would guess. Many of them realise that pet food is almost as nutritious as human food.
And the significant information here, did you know...
All food sold for cats and dogs has to be ra

Sorry, don't know what happened there... computer glitch, hit a wrong key, incomplete message got posted, then the thing just switched off.
I'll run that one again:

All food sold for cats and dogs has to be legally rated as fit for human consumption. Because people will eat the strangest stuff in times of financial difficulty or food shortage. Like now. Although cat food is pretty bland: somebody once posted a comment somewhere that if cat food is unavailable, get baby food - it's a very similar kind of thing. So I thought I'd try it on my cat - bought her a squeezy bag of fish dinner with potato and veg, put it in her dish... and she turned her nose up at it! So I thought I'd taste it (...if it's fit for babies...) - and yes, it was disappointingly bland, didn't taste anything like fish at all! Or anything else, really.
Go figure.
