We have had this conversation before on this forum, whilst people might stream out of the cities in America, the same thing will NOT happen here, British Sheeple will wait and wait and wait for help to come to them, the "govt wont allow it to happen" syndrome, by the time they realise help is NOT coming its already too late.

Benefit of british people escaping the cities is mist wont be properly clothed, they will either freeze to death or snap there ankles. Look at how many people need to be rescued each year in the lake distric as they dont have adequet clothing or the people gwt cut of by the sea trying to cross the causeway at farne island. It even states the tide times, rescue services were getting so fed up with callouts by people taking stupid risks.

same on Dartmoor, women in strappy tops and flip flops and blokes in t shirt, shorts and trainers, the weather changes so fast on The Moor they get caught out.
if the Sheeple EVER think about leaving the cities....which i find VERY doubtful they wont get 10 miles without snapping an ankle, freezing , starving, or getting shot!

I seriously doubt that your US cousins in Los Angeles or New York City will do much streaming either. In LA, distances just to get to the city limits is a long, long hike, and gasoline will be at a premium putting most folks on foot. The Angelinos will have to fight it out on their own home turf - literally!
NYC is an island, and the bridges are the choke/control points. New Yorkers are toast anyway you figure the scenario.
I expect we'll get a flow northward from Beaumont and/or Houston, but the few roads into our town can easily be blocked or cut. Besides, we have a Texas Ranger stationed here who can handle anything!

i plotted a refugee course out of Devon, a long time ago, and there are 2 "Choke" points going east, Exeter where the A377 and A38 meet up with the M5, and near Tiverton Parkway where the A361(North Devon link road) meets the M5, this will be where everything backs up for miles and where the arguements and violence starts.
