   This is the same government that is urging us to buy electric vehicles whilst limiting future sales of ICE and hybrid vehicles. You will need more than a torch if your EV is stranded in your drive or parked in the road outside your house

     This is actually worrying. People like me have been doing this for a while, but the fact that they’re saying this more generally suggests that they not only know that the grid is at risk of failure but also think it’s getting closer to happening.

     @Flick @HebrideanHecate I think if we break out in world war there is a very good probability that nuclear weapons will be used to emp vulnerable power grids.

     @Flick @HebrideanHecate I've been prepared for a while.
     I don't trust these bastards to not cut off our power, but I'm damned if I'll beg for them to save me.
     I'll hold out for as long as I can.

     I wonder how many thousands of years we will be stuck at horse and carriage level this time?
