It could be a local power outage and people are panicking. Plod may have given up but it could be sorted tomorrow.
We still have to play this game though as it is the way that many new preppers learn to start to look outside the box and consider what if? How would they handle it and the older prepeprs get to consider if they have covered that properly in their preps.
Personally, I do not do well in playing these games but I am into Risk Management so can consider scenarios without playing games and then test them. It's a thought process thing.

I think the principle of what you're speaking about TP is accurate, however, the UK is filled with density hotspots. Major cities hold the greatest density, however the migration you speak of, is VERY unlikely to provide a fully equalised geographic population. Whether the average mile has 700 people in, the actual truth is more likely to be similar to how it is now. Some places will have much greater densities than others. I can't see 700 people thinking the top 1 mile of Ben Nevis is a great place to stay, nor the middle square mile of Loch Ness. This leads me to believe that there will still be an uneven distribution of citizenry throughout the UK.
Those that are prepared will likely stay in place for a while, and try to wait out the situation. This will decide whether it's a momentary blip, or a major catastrophe.
With that in mind, I'm of the persuasion that believes it wise to do the same, depending on the situation. Our neighbours are great people and there are strong bonds between many people on the road. We're enough out of the way, to not be concerned about major city activities.
Ahh I am most pleased with this answer. This is what I'm looking for...lateral thinking
