That's great and I'll go on using the accepted alternative. Again, you chose the version you prefer, makes no odds to me.

Yet more big brother, or is this sensible.

 

I can think of no event in my 60-odd years on this planet that would have merited such a systen:

 

Public emergency alerts to be sent to all UK mobile phones

The government will send people loud, siren-like warnings to alert them when there is a risk to life.

Designed to terrify and control, seems like no one has taken much notice of what Hancock and  co were up to via wats app.

You can switch the emergency alerts off in your phone settings. It tells you how to  do it in the news article.

 

Or you could just ignore any alert like loads of people do with weather warnings, then sit in their car on the side on the m6 'freezing to death' causing all kinds of mayhem for the emergency services.

 

I doubt it's big brother watching you, it's more like big brother trying to stop stupid people causing chaos and making an idiot out of themselves.
