It is so reassuring to know that we have a government that cares for our health and safety; especially in preparation for nuclear war.
The UK government has now advised all UK citizens to make certain provisions in case of being attacked by Putin (I imagine).
According to the government's 'UK Prepare' website, we should keep five particular things in the boots of our cars, just in case we happen to be driving along to Sainsbury's when the bomb drops! A First Aid Kit, A Fire Extinguisher, A Warning Triangle, A Reflective Vest, and A Tow Rope. This (below) is their official picture.
These five things, we are assured, will protect us from any WW3 attack.
Well, I would like to thank our government for their advice; I feel much safer now.
In case of a nuclear blast here in Brighton I will try to put-out any fire with the extinguisher, offer the wounded a sticking plaster, wear my Hi-Viz jacket just for fun, and erect the warning triangle in case no-one has noticed that we've been attacked. I'm still trying to think of a use for the tow rope.
As well as the above we are also encouraged to keep a good supply of the items below inside our own homes.
Bottled water, tinned foods, torch and batteries, matches, warm clothes, Swiss army knife, radio, passport or ID, money, and a compass and maps. I think I have all of those, as well as the car stuff.
Well, I don't know about you, but if WW3 is declared, and Putin starts throwing Nuclear weapons at us, I shall open my best bottle of Champagne and sit outside until the blast hits me.
A post-Nuclear world wouldn't be worth living in.

Only a socialist could imagine the need for a map and compass at home. Finding a leftie with the capability to comprehend basic navigation is an achievement worth noting.
I suspect it's just another excuse to avoid elections
The only thing the list has to commend itself, is that it doesn't mention brown paper bags or hiding under the dining table.
