Cuts would probably occur at peak times and customers would be warned in advance.

How would this affect you and yours?

Are any of you business owners that would have back up plans?

I suspect it will be a lot of worse for countries repaint on Russia.

Its been on the cards for a few winters now. I got a generator a few years ago with sufficient capacity to run fridge, central heating, internet and lights so no worries if there's a longer cut.

Same I have a Genny with 20L in the shed as a back up and what we used to use camping. Might come in handy haha

We'd lose. The youth would be posting pics of them and their locations on insta and snap chat.
Hell, the enemy would only have to look for idiots dancing for a snap chat video.

Dancing on the front line for a tik tok video. no one would sign up anyway as no one has a gender these days so it would be impossible.

Looks like it's going to become a stark reality.

Charts of power cuts depending on a letter on your energy bill.

National grid now warning of cuts in Jan/Feb.

If it does happen, I'll wrap up extra warm, and hope for a clear night sky where I can sit out in my garden with a.hot flask of Bovril and stare at the stars.
