Re: Government to test emergency alert system
But will they provide a paper bag to put on your head and a table to hide under? Not a true test otherwise.

The national system for sending emergency alerts to mobile phones in the UK will be tested again this September, the government has said.

Re: Government to test emergency alert system
And fine, obviously it didn’t work as well as intended, so presumably they have tweaked the system and will try again!
Can’t really see any problem with that.
