Should We Be Taking Nuclear Threats More Seriously?

[Theblip]

Russia has been threatening to nuke the UK, and they have the support of Iran, North Korea, and China.  Some of our politicians dismiss Putin's threats as bluff and sabre-rattling.  Yet he has certainly acted on his threats elsewhere.  Life just goes on as normal here, so presumably most people aren't concerned.  Should we be, and if so what should we be doing to prepare in case it happens?

if russia does nuke the uk then it's pretty much curtains. the only preparation will be to try and die in the least unpleasant manner possible. i certainly would not want to survive it.

Yes - I think we should all be very afraid & run around like headless chickens. I'm ordering in 3-5 years' supply of tinned food & bottled water & I've put in a planning application for a nuclear bunker (I hope it gets approved in time!).🤣

(If there is a nuclear strike on the UK I want to be exactly where the first bomb hits.)

PS. //Russia has been threatening to nuke the UK// Have you a link to this specific threat?

As long as I have enough time to paint my windows white and form a shelter under the table I'll be content.
