This should be fun on aircraft on the 23rd of April.

A siren-like alert will be sent to mobile phone users across the UK next month to test a new government public warning system.The test is expected to take place in the early evening of 23rd April.

"A message will appear on the home screens of peoples' devices during the test, with vibration and a loud warning sound that will ring for about 10 seconds, even if the phone is set to silent."

This looks like more money spent on something just to create a headline ...

... during all the storms, etc, has anyone actually received an alert.

Perhaps the siren only goes off if Sunak manages to keep a promise <laugh>

Ignorant being the operative word, because he is literally ignorant of the lives of "hard working families". He and his wife are collectively worth billions. I can guarantee that he will never be waiting hours on end for medical care.

He’s stood there arguing that they’ve done a good job on medical care and doesn’t realise people have experience of it

Tha apathy surrounding next month's election here is incredibly.

I'm not suggesting there won't be other factors in play, but trying to get folk interested in a by-election when there'll be a general election within months is always going to be an uphill battle.

Ignoring whether or not Rwanda is a good/safe place to send refugees/economic migrants I am very confident that the Rwandan government will not have paid the UK government £400 million to take them. <laugh>
