UK Space Weather Policy

The Register: "The UK is ill prepared for a major catastrophic solar storm"

"In 2025, the government estimated a 5-25 percent chance of a severe space weather event by 2030. However, according to the NAO, the UK is not well prepared. Despite severe space weather being added to the UK's National Risk Register in 2011, and some investment in developing the country's forecasting capabilities, the NAO warned that the government "does not yet understand the full range of possible impacts and cascading effects well."

It has also not "yet set out how resilient it would like the UK to be to severe space weather, nor what level of resilience its spending will provide."

"[…] this [is] to enable a “seamless travel experience”, while also giving the #ukgov “greater power to stop those who pose a threat from setting foot in the country and gives us a fuller picture of immigration.”

Yes, of course #ftl #dysfunctional #bollocks

just almost missed the 3rd time the #DWP called me to check if i am not 'scrounging' taxpayers money.

as it's one of few times i can tell the government what i think about their treatment of me, & everybody else in my position, i told them exactly #TheStateWeAreIn

it's weird. i feel angry but also relieved to be able to let out what i keep inside. the public servant i spoke to was brilliant, he listened patiently & reassured me he wouldn't harass me again. he respectfully allowed me to let it out. thank you for that stefan.

now i will have a good rest of my day. i will go to #ThePark & sit at my beautiful ancient willow tree.
