what action would that be then, an extra jumper ,or turn up the
heating ,what a load of ****s.


Yes I agree it is a load of melodramatic codswallop. Okay I know some people
who live in Forest Hill SE London who won't be able to use their cars, but
that aint many. I think UKMO under the Labour Party were guided or pushed
to use this OTT terminology due to H&S becoming a political weapon. The only
people I really worry about are the really elderly-you know the forgotten by
the politicians ignored but still liable for tax. Many will find it nigh on
impossible to get out and about. The other issue is shops where people
really do act like lemmings and buy up everything they can.

However at the end of the day just stay at home and wait for it to pass,
it's already petering out here in SE London at 12:19 despite the RED ALERT
TAKE ACTION nonsense.
