the government would have very little to do with planning for any type of shtf in this country really , after all governments change . shtf would be planned for by cobra, cobra was given the remit for shtf scenarios in the late 80's , the problem is that anything they came up with was based on personnel numbers before the cuts !( military (inc reserves ), police, fire fighter, paramedic, nhs etc all cut in numbers) any attempt to put into place the plans they came up with prior to the cuts would be unworkable .
