Surely this is one of the most irresponsible things ever to be said by an incumbent government.
No doubt we will be seeing empty shelves again this week as all the big roll gets bought. |  |

Are they referring to strikers and midfielders made of glass?
If so, I’m on board.
It’s a bit concerning and my first thought was the hysteria it could cause.
That and it’ll send my old fella bandy and he’ll be buying two dozen of everything rather than the dozen he buys now even though one would suffice [Post edited 24 Oct 0:06]

Yes, apparently Putin is going to cut our cables, Iran have infiltrated and will initiate bacterial warfare against us, malicious actors are going to shut the entire internet down.
At least that’s what all the media reports concentrate on. Of course, it’s all bollocks as they mislead us, as ever.
The true reason is our energy policy under various governments has put us in a position where we import virtually all our energy, have removed most forms of storage, purely on the basis that if we aren’t drilling it out of the ground we don’t need it. The idiots in charge don’t want us to hear this but if your lights do eventually go out and your frozen food rots, you can be sure they’ll blame everyone apart from the actual villains, themselves. |  | | |

Wasn’t the message to have “three days” of stuff?
I do the weekly shop every Saturday so I’m actually stocking up for 7 days, not three. Will be interesting to see what it’s like today at the shop.
Is he using the storms as a mask to hide a more concerning issue? |  | | |

From what I've seen/read there could be a real possibility of a cyber issue in the next month. The government are going to know that advising people to stock up is a dangerous thing to do so they must have some legitimate knowledge that something could happen.
I'd personally take it seriously but don't go mad. Just as a bare minimum get some water, some long life food and have some cash available. | | | |

think your 3rd paragraph is far nearer to the truth. I live in a more deprived part of the country, if SHTF i think they'll be alot of 'looting out' not 'stocking up'..

Mrs S has been onto me about this. No point hoarding food if you haven’t got water and power. We’ve ordered a camping stove and candles online. Hope the courier doesn’t feel he needs them more. Also took out some cash, getting water later. The main principle is not to get something you wouldn’t otherwise use. |  | | |

I think most people do but perhaps not food and water they could consume direct from a can/container.
If the energy system goes down and there's no running water all those dried long life foods are a bit difficult to consume and your food in the fridge/freezer is going to spoil.
I agree, I think it is a bit of a dangerous thing to come out with as a government but maybe there are rumblings of some sort of infrastructure attack in the near future planned. If it did happen they could at least say 'well, we did say to be prepared'.
This world is just going to get more and more unstable because the people in control do not. give a f*** about changing things now to help the majority. As long as they and their lobbying mates have the money and power why would they care. |  | | |

Being told to stockpile is the irresponsible thing a government has done ever? Blue tinted glasses causing a significant bias if ever i saw one.
Need we remjnd you of a certain 49 day government that nrarly bankrupted the country, or the one before that which disobeyed its own rules to party? Joining the ERM at waaay to high an exhange rate causing black Wednesday.
But too bias the other way? Ok, the partition of India or joining the Iraq war.
Stockpiling? Not even top 20... [Post edited 24 Oct 17:53]

What happened to their key word at conference a few weeks ago? HOPE, hope and more hope. Everything will get better so there is hope was the message. Sounds like the key word should be despair as the future is all hopeless... |  | | |
