Thank you for teaching me a new word today.
As others have pointed out children were evacuated, but realistically a lot of people have jobs to do that they can't just do elsewhere and most people just don't believe things like that will happen to them and certainly not here (there is a TED talk by a photographer of the Bosnian war about this that I cannot find right).
Finally, this is British people we are talking about: a stiff upper lip is basically their national idea (or was).
Regardless I hope I would have the foresight to do some vamoosing of my own, in case things went that much south.
