![]() | What would be British People’ most concern if UK were attacked nuclear bombs? It is not nuclear radiation. According to French Media, the newly released confidential file shows that the shortage of tea is UK’s most concern at the moment of post attack. The document was drafted between 1954 and 1956. The document said: “the whole Britain will face a severe scarcity of beverage if UK is attacked by atomic bomb or h-bomb. The paper also pointed: “the supply of tea will be in danger. 75% of tea reserve will be consumed. The difficulty in importing renders it hard to satisfy the average consumption of one ounce (28 grams) per capita.” Surprising news! A nuclear bomb exploded in 1971 on an island around Pacific ocean ![]() |

![]() | They'd have bigger things to worry about if the UK was nuked! The concerns about tea are the worries of people with too much time on their hands. |

![]() | Or a document that was written for the benefit of the tea industry, a scare tactic, encouraging the general public to "stock up" on tea. Good for business, you know. |

![]() | They should be worried more about drinkable water. Forget the tea. And this is supposed to be confidential??? What have they been doing in the 50’s? |

![]() | Haha! Griz, Shesgottobe, Garykinkade, Tea is important in wartime. Just remind me that someone has ever posted a thread "A cup of tea, military use or civilian use?" In the army, tea is munition. Drinking tea is helpful to refresh commanders' energy and mind. It would be better if military commanders drink Chinese tea. Longjing Tea and Oolong Tea are the best choices! ^_^ I am not a salesman. Naturally, I am not promoting Chinese Tea!LOL! |
