It's scaremongering to say that 3 days of rations will help you in the event of war.

However, as successive governments have mismanaged our energy security, and as it looks like supplies might well be at risk over the coming months, it makes sense. But I've always done it; it simply makes sense to me.

Unfortunately, the way it has been released has resulted in panic buying in some areas. For that, I award Streeting W*nker of the year, and the competition has been tough!
