I've got a radical idea the current Nuclear war heads are coming to the end of their life why don't we nuke the worst effected areas or alternatively threaten anyone who closes their borders to us with total destruction. We may as well use the 200 or so missiles it would be a shame to waste them.

Okay let's keep half back for eating that means we have 100 to use, one is enough to take out London and the South East so sarge you pull up a list of the 99 other targets and then mark them with something I don't know say a red bloon.

The ones that are shut are tbf.

Funnily enough he floundered badly when asked why they are still telling parents to send pupils to school this week instead of closing early. Didn’t give much of an answer other than to emphasise that parents must send their kids in.

Can anyone remember the film "Threads" which came out in the 1980s?

It depicts what life would be like if the UK was attacked with nuclear weapons but I feel it could also provide a useful insight into what life could be like over the next few months. Take away the radiation sickness and its otherwise pretty accurate.

Yes, but I am unsure in the effectiveness of all hiding under a table with a few cans of soup.....or was that The Young Ones?Is that the atom bomb, then is it aey? Owww, Nah. Not in that colour, you  know what I mean?” | Jase_tv's Blog

No I think that was Threads. You could also prop a mattress against the wall and hide behind that.

Seems as good a plan as any at the moment.

Just been in a taxi where the driver stated that he’d rather they gave the vaccine “to those who need it first, I’d rather ill people and healthcare workers got it before me.”

Does he think they’re just picking people by postcode? Or sorting them alphabetically by surname?

To be fair in some hospitals it’s been first come first serve with admin staff who had the time to sit on hold on the phone getting it first, so he’s not actually far off.

I just thought that sky news this morning had the feel and look of an apocalyptic tv drama.

I'm pretty sure this isn't true.

100% fact. Released on an internal website in batches. Those who are able to sit and refresh are able to catch a slot. Those who are with patients can't. Doesn't ask your role, so no way to prioritise staff. People asking their mates to sort them with an app if they get logged in etc. NHS Lanarkshire.
