I was discussing this with my mother a couple of days ago. What with flooding and all the storms lately causing damage to power infrastructure I can hardly imagine what might happen if a few thousand homes lost power for any length of time. All the food lost and even worse behaviour from the hoarding rabble.

Dodge if necessary we must eat less .
More people die from obesity related illnesses than starvation .
We are not going to starve in the UK.

Now is the time for ration books as it seems the brain dead cannot get around the issue of being sensible.

I am trying to cut down on food to make it go further, Mr Mags is doing the same. Hopefully we will get through this.

I guess this is a huge embarrassment for her now. She was tired and skyping a colleague who recorded it and uploaded it.

I really think the government are seriously thinking of printing and issuing ration books. In fact they may have already done so.
Things just cannot go on as they are now.

Yes I wish they would do just that. I remember seeing Ration Books when I was a child, they had stopped using them but there were some in our house.
