Yes, that's the govt. line but it's not what the leaked NPoCC report said. Who decides who needs what and who gets what and where are these deliveries coming from and to and are the recipients standing in an orderly queue? They are planning for riots and there will be curfews enforced by armed troops and looters will be harshly dealt with. But all this may never come to pass.

It's bloody frightening to think that this could happen.

The scare mongering that is going on is out of this world.
A sandwich shortage, a cheese shortage and medical shortage amongst the romours that are doing the rounds.

It's quite incredible to think that the EU would force a country who they rely greatly for its security would allow this to happen.

The nutters already waiting to start are the danger. The enemy within society waiting to blame the system. Pole tax riots spring to mind.

At the risk of taking this further OT, Frog, nowt would surprise me.

In UK last week I enquired of the possibility of a scotch egg from the deli at Sainsburys. I was told they haven't had any for ages - 'it's to do with the CO2 shortages weeks ago'

And Aldi ran out of my favourite German beer this week and I had to drink a French brew and my red wine, 80 Acres from Australia is also no longer available. Can things get much worse?

Hmm I wonder which part of society will will get the priorities when rationing start?

roly, you and I both know that the jokers who now make up our political class couldn't organise a system of rationing. They'll leave it to the market.

...that's what I'm worried about Monts...

Thanks Brin. I had a walk around the estate a couple of years ago and it seemed better than I remembered it. Loads of houses look like they have been bought by the people in them and looked really nice.

I believe they are building on Greenfield Bankings, which is really sad as I have great memories of playing football on there for hours on end.... until it got too dark to see, or we got called in for tea lol
