  • I refuse to be victimised by this so called “emergency alert” test by our dishonest puppet government. I’m setting an alarm to go off on my phone at the EXACT same time. They won’t catch me out.
    Reminds me when they introduced their stealth plastic bag tax a few years ago. DIDNT CATCH ME!! I refused to pay it and just reused my bags! You need to think fast to keep ahead of the man!
    Wow, just wow 🤯
