It is completely unneccessary to waste money on leaflets and the money should be used on training and prevention by the police.
In fairness this country is alot more likely to be subjected to a chemical or Dirty bomb attack than Israel is. I have not seen one of these leaflets yet so will resevere judgement until I have seen it. However I can see the scenes in a few weeks Tesco's shelves empty of bottled water and tinned food as people take the advice. This would not even have to be panic buying. If everyone in the country took the advice and had some supplies in that they talk about most shops would have none of these items left for weeks as they ould never be able to cover 20 million households buying the same types of items.

We live in very difficult times and this leaflet brings that fact home, burying are head in the sand and hoping it will go away will nt work
