In reading this article, I learn the most from the third point made about bugging out too fast. Where am I going to go? I don’t have a log cabin in a national park. But even if I did, how will I get there? Roads will probably be packed with traffic. Cross country isn’t an option as the land in the immediate vicinity is very marshlike and unpassable except in a vehicle with a serious offroad capability. There may be military roadblocks in place preventing travel.

I think that in the short term, bugging in would be the best option for me and many Britons in general. There will inevitably be a time where I have to leave, but I must be wary that the window of opportunity for safely bugging out may have passed.
