RE: What are you Prepping for.
Paul your ideas about what the British people do are gleaned from unknown sources. God only knows where you come up with some of this stuff.
Evacuation is in the nature of the British, they will evacuate anywhere any time if there is a place where the bad things they are experiencing are not happening or they see fortune or survival awaiting.
It is an unhandy concept for a prepper but it is reality and ignoring it does not make it go away.
The first, the very first, thing that was done after WW2 began was the evacuation of women and children to the countryside with forced quartering of them placed on the resident population. That was even before the blitz was in full swing.
All through history there is a steady stream of people going from the city to the country to escape disease and a stream of people going from the country to the city, or from city to city, to find work.
That is not to mention the displacements and enclosures of agricurial workers that put thousands on the road homeless and the closures of mines and industries that forced migration. Back before benefits if you didn't leave you starved. One reason why there are more Irish in America than in Ireland.
You even had laborers that were a transient population of thousands that built your canal systems and railroads.
About 1/3 of the US population and most of Canada claims British heritage. Every one of their ancestors was an evacuee.
And you also have the 1/3 of of your population in most of the major cities that was born God knows where in the universe and came to GB for a better life. They are evacuees, and they are now part of YOUR population, they are British. They are not going to sit anywhere and patiently starve, while waiting for Borris to send the sandwich truck.
And we have not mentioned the immigration of hundreds of thousands of British subjects to North America, the West Indies, India, Australia, New Zealand, Egypt and South Africa, Kenya and Rhodesia as well as China, Burma and other oriental areas.
The British adapted to the American frontier, the Canadian wilderness, the Australian outback and the New Zealand forests and climate, food and cultural variations around the world, and they will adapt to the frontier of backwoods Devon and the Welsh hills if that need arises.
