🚨 NEWS: The British Government is urging every household to prepare for at least three days of disruption amid growing concerns over cyberattacks, hostile states, extreme weather and potential shortages of essential supplies.
Under a new three-year national campaign called 'Be Ready', households are being advised to stockpile bottled water, tinned food, cash, essential medication, batteries and emergency equipment.
Defence Secretary Wes Streeting has warned that cyberattacks could disrupt banking, electricity and other critical services.
Government research found that just 13% of people in Britain feel prepared for an emergency that could cut them off from essential services.
The guidance is intended to help households remain self-sufficient for 72 hours during a major incident.
Russell Brand has been jailed for 10 and a half years. I've watched enough footage to have absolutely no doubt about his guilt.
But where is this same severity for every other offender?
Those responsible for sentencing in Britain have serious questions to answer. Too many criminals receive laughably lenient punishments while others face the full force of the law.
The two-tier justice system is a national disgrace. Judges must stop handing down wildly inconsistent sentences and start delivering justice equally, regardless of who is standing in the dock.
John Coker reportedly posed as a fire alarm engineer to assault and rob an elderly man in his own home. Despite 172 previous offences, he was initially jailed for just 4 years and 8 months.
Meanwhile, Burnham's Labour government is more concerned with banning children from LEGO Play and Spotify.
You do not despise this government enough.

Meanwhile, MI5 identifies Islamist extremism as Britain's largest terrorist threat, accounting for 75% of its counter-terrorism work.
Perhaps Khan should spend less time lecturing British people and more time confronting the extremist ideology that poses such a serious threat to our country.
Criticism of Islam is not hatred of Muslims, and nobody should be bullied into silence.
Happy Islamophobia Awareness Month, everyone!
Sadiq Khan is accused of covering up a potentially unlawful speed limit that saw more than 66,000 motorists fined, generating over £6 MILLION.
Some drivers reportedly lost their licences and livelihoods, while Khan allegedly refused an independent investigation.
A court has now acquitted a driver after serious questions emerged over whether the speed limit was even legally authorised.
A huge scandal.
Cyberattacks are spreading across European supermarkets, with hackers remotely manipulating refrigeration systems and forcing temperatures above 50°C.
Hundreds of stores have been affected, spoiling food supplies and exposing serious security failures.
More than 800 refrigeration and building controllers in Britain have also been found accessible from the public internet.
The Government keeps telling British households to prepare for emergencies. Perhaps it should start by ensuring our food supply infrastructure is properly protected.
CORRECTION: Nathalia Gadelha, 20, was identified as the co-pilot of the Learjet that crashed in Florida, not the pilot in command as previously reported.
An analysis of ONS figures for 2023/24 suggests White households were the only ethnic group paying more in taxes than they received in benefits, on average.
White: +£1,444
Asian: -£4,135
Black: -£4,584
Other: -£5,360
Mixed: -£5,545
These figures include public services such as healthcare and education, as well as welfare payments.
Working taxpayers are being squeezed harder every year. The Government should publish a full breakdown of who contributes, who receives, and why.
Shabana Mahmood has ordered an independent investigation into the disgraceful police handling of Henry Nowak's murder.
Will this finally deliver some accountability, or will Mahmood perform yet another humiliating u-turn the moment things get uncomfortable?
Britain is dangerously exposed to AI-powered cyberattacks, and I genuinely worry that the people running this country have absolutely no idea what is coming. Head in sand doesn't come close...
Artificial intelligence is making cyberattacks faster, cheaper and FAR more sophisticated.
Our hospitals. Our electricity grid. Our water supplies. Our banks. Our transport networks. Our food.
Everything.
Imagine the chaos if even one of these systems were brought down for days, even a few hours.
Do you trust the British state to effectively fight back?
To reduce the fallout? To recover?
I do not.
The threat is real. Dangerously real.
Yet Westminster seems permanently obsessed with yesterday's arguments.
Britain needs serious investment in cyber defence. Proper protection for critical infrastructure. Far tougher security standards for our systems. The ability to identify, disrupt and respond to hostile cyber operations.
Sovereign AI capabilities to withstand the onslaught that will come. It already is.
We should be developing British expertise, recruiting the very best technical minds and treating cyber defence as a fundamental matter of national security.

Sadiq Khan is lecturing Britain about "Islamophobia Awareness Month", warning that anyone targeting people over their religion will be held accountable.
Yet he's switched off replies to his own post. 😂
Apparently, the Mayor of London is happy to lecture the British public but isn't so keen on hearing what they think.
Criticising Islam is not a crime. Free speech does not end where Sadiq Khan's feelings begin.
Shabana Mahmood is reportedly preparing to water down her immigration crackdown after facing opposition from within Labour.
Anyone who genuinely believed she was serious about tackling mass immigration needs their head checking.
The tough speeches were nothing but lies. The promises worthless.
Labour has absolutely no intention of getting immigration under control. The British public are once again being taken for fools.

Happy Islamophobia Awareness Month, everyone!
This Islamophobia Awareness Month, we must shine a light on the abhorrent hatred and discrimination Muslims continue to face.
In the last year alone, religious hate crimes targeting Muslims rose by 15% in England and Wales.
This is utterly unacceptable. London will always stand against hatred, prejudice and discrimination.
So not only does Andy Burnham want Britain to apologise for the slave trade, he's now considering spending British taxpayers' money in Commonwealth countries as compensation.
Not a single British taxpayer alive today bears any responsibility for the slave trade, yet Burnham wants each and every one of us to pay for it.
Our own NHS is struggling, our schools are under pressure and working families are being taxed into the ground. Not ONE SINGLE PENNY should be spent on slavery reparations.
No apologies, and absolutely NO PAYOUTS.
Absolutely unacceptable.
