Just a heads up The Ministry of Defence have been told to be on standby for complete UK lockdown as of Monday evening at 6pm... No one is to leave their home's unless you work in Front Line Retail or the NHS...
I heard this directly from my neighbour Trigger who is best friends with a guy called Boycey. Boycey knows a guy named Del who drinks down the pub with his uncle Albert. Albert was in the Navy during the war so knows his stuff.

All people wait to get green to cross the street, but once a first person crosses in red light, many of the others will follow.
What you describe is already happening in Italy and Spain, where police cars with "Please stay at home" and already arresting people in the streets that shouldn't be there. It would not be that "impossible to think" that it gets instaurated there too

... except all the pubs are shut now, and for the foreseeable future.
You'd have a better chance of getting that conspiracy theory going on FarceBok, or Reddit ... They are generally more gullible.

Could be, I don't think anyone has any idea how long this could last.

Not really that, but somehow in this direction....
I suggested to my wife that we get an emergency generator. I told her we should get one with diesel because we usually have a lot of diesel for heating.
Her comment: Let us take one with electric supply
It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question

It's possible if you consider the sun or wind to power it...
Or you could get the mother of all UPS too...

Foot-pedal generators are better.

Solar with battery storage- run off the sun during the day and batteries at night. What holds me back is the initial investment; the batteries are freaking expensive.
In the USA; when fuel costs are factored in, Natural Gas is the cheapest way to go. Actually costs less to run my house (and a neighbor's) for less than the local power utility- to the tune of $10/month. An awful long time to pay it off though.
Diesel and Propane are close in price for operations, and gas/petrol is the least efficient.
For us tinkerers out there (eg CodeWitch)... an old diesel genset could be converted to run on many different oil-based fuels such as heating oil, kerosene, vegetable oil.

Pretty Cool answer
Well, I have plenty of roof to place solar panels, but unfortunately I don't have the money to do it (especially also not for the dirty batteries)
Have a nice day

I'll take leprosy.
She was around for the first outbreak of that, so it should scare her enough.
