UK emergency alert test this weekend

Hi All,

There's going to be a test of the UK's emergency alert system on Sunday 23rd April, which means that most smartphones and tablets will make a loud sound and vibrate for about 10 seconds at 3pm (even if set to silent). I don't think this has been broadcast widely enough, and wanted to make sure as many people are prepared as possible!

  • Personally I'm sick to death of this government terrorising the very people that it purports to represent, not giving a damn about communities like ours with antics like this. They started doing this three years ago now and they're showing no signs of stopping!
