What the petition asks
We want the Government to build a nationwide air raid/civil defence siren system in every town and city and test it regularly.
The Emergency Alert System relies on mobile networks & internet infrastructure - which would fail in the event of:
- A cyber attack on communications networks
- An EMP strike
We believe that air raid sirens are a basic survival tool in an age where threats move faster than politics. We want the Government to take national survival seriously, protect Britain and act now.
