I agree with some of that in terms of people working to get the some of the tech going again but if your talking about a 2 years to get back to the "new normal" how long will it be bad. If its 6 months to year without fuel or food getting to the shops then a hell of a lot of people will die though starvation, disease, exposure (depends on time of year and length), or plain old killing each other.

given that full scale farming in the UK can feed all our population now by a long way then I can see a big drop in population and it will be a lottery if you survive the early days/weeks all we can do now is prep in the hope that we improve the odds of surviving.

The only other very interesting thought will be say if for example a solar flare took out the UK infra structure how long would the international community take to help and what would happen in the interim time in the UK

I agree with the above, except the part about farming feeding all the population, self sufficient (i.e, NO imports) farming will ONLY feed about 25% of the current population so a decrease in population will be needed.

ARHH thanks for spotting the typo missed the NOT should have read

"given that full scale farming in the UK can not feed all our population now"
