Brexit

Remainers-have you stockpiled to insure against the possibility of no deal?

Dds have told me that their dad has nothing extra in at all. There's 10 of them in the house and several animals. They voted remain. I realise that not all remainers will have a food and essential supplies buffer but surely if you have a big family then you'd want to ensure you have enough food even for a few days if things go to worst case scenario? I can understand a single person or couple not stashing but surely when you have kids, and so many of them, it's vital to make sure you can feed them? The dds are starving whenever they come back from there as it is so hope that there are no shortages because he will struggle to feed them. They eat me out of house and home here so I'm worried they'll potentially go hungry there.
Joint household income of around £70K so not short of money before anyone suggests they might not be able to afford to.

I don't think it's nuts to worry about your ex's stash Trewser, if you're a Mum you're a Mum, you're bound to worry about their wellbeing in any circumstances.

I haven't stockpiled but I reckon there's enough food in the house for a few weeks. We wouldn't have salads, obviously, but we certainly wouldn't starve.
