NS&I Investments

The majority of my savings are in NS&I long term bonds.  Given the government's huge spending plans to deal with the Covid19 pandemic, are these savings in any way at risk?

If you believe the Government will default I'd suggest there's much more to worry about than your NS&I bonds 
I can't think of anywhere that could be considered safer.

Your biggest risk is probably inflation.

Karen on Facebook also told me that as part of the government, NS&I is also spreading 5G.

Alex is right, if all your savings are in NS&I the biggest risk is financial repression (where the government, directly or indirectly, holds interest rates lower than inflation for an extended period).
