Where did you read that the EU was advising this stockpile?

We are Democrats. But I don’t think immigration would bother us. If so, I guess I’m stuck in England. It could be worse.

It’s not getting stuck in England you need to worry about. It’s getting stuck in a holding tank at Dulles that should concern you.

Agreed this is the highest actual risk of anything described here. For better or worse if you are a US-born citizen who is white, that risk is lower than for those who don't meet those qualifications.

They would love to poke fingers at anyone but themselves

UK power grid is woefully outdated with many components near the end of their useful lives. North Hyde station, serving LHR, is in a area where there has been a very high number of new electricity connection requests driven by new housing developments, data centers, and new commercial investment in Greater London.

72 hours of supplies is not a serious preparation for war, and a recommendation along those lines should not be interpreted as implying that a war is imminent. It's merely a prudent measure against short-term interruptions in utilities, nothing more.

What have you posted in social media or on your phone?

I don’t suppose anything. But the EU is urging citizens to stockpile 72 hours worth of supplies due to the situation between Russia and Ukraine.

Who do you suppose England is going to be in war against this summer?

We have plans to visit England in July. We made the arrangements in the fall, before Trump was elected. I just read that the EU is urging citizens to stockpile 72 hours worth of supplies due to war risks. This is making me rethink the trip. Would you feel safe going to the UK this summer? I know there are bigger things to worry about but I’m rethinking my plans.
