It requires that as well as dishonesty.  The relevant section of the
Theft Act 1968 reads:

| A person is guilty of theft if he dishonestly appropriates property
| belonging to another with the intention of permanently depriving the
| other of it; and 'thief' and 'steal' shall be construed accordingly.
