You'd be surprised how many people don't even have drinking water stored to get through a few days. That's 2nd most essential after air to breathe.

Same with food. NONE of this type of preparation is difficult, very space / time consuming, or expensive.

As for the LNG situation: worst case is do without heating. Totally doable in UK climate; extra layers of clothing & blankets / sleeping bags do the job (been there, done that in the NL).

Remember we're talking getting through a crisis, not comfort. Although you can have both with more prep work.
