Mine wasn't that loud but it was in very badly pronounced Welsh. As in American speaking Welsh words as if they were English. Lol. I wonder if you can listen on line.

My phone didn't go off, but one of my housemates did. I know they need people to hear it but drat, maybe something a little more pleasant.

Didn't come through on my work phone (switched off but I wasn't sure if it was going to 'break through' somehow. Also didn't come through on my Nokia 105 phone which has a 4G O2 SIM in it so not related to SIM capability.

They picked an incredibly annoying noise. When it goes off for real I'm going to ignore it out of spite.

Mine didn't go off either. I'm on Three if that's maybe it. My wife's did and she's on EE. Though it could also be that she's on an iphone while I'm in a Samsung galaxy. Or it could be that my phone was on silent and hers wasn't. Maybe this was the reason for the test. The government know its just another emergency thing that doesn't work on broken Britain. I wonder which one of their mates they spaffed a few million quid to for this.

A particular breed of Welsh nationalist who thinks their phone's attempt to read out the message was a recorded part of the alarm is going to be PISSED.

Could be a Three thing as well. I'm on idmobile and they're a Three reseller. Mine's a Samsung too.

My phone that did get it is Smarty which rides on Three. I think it's phone related not provider related. My phone it arrived on is Android, Moto E30. yeah people posting on Twitter from Spain etc where lots of British phones in use - no alarm there - it comes from the cell towers not via the phone companies apparently.

On a train and the conductor made an announcement a few minutes ahead of time to warn everyone, haha. I disabled it on my phone but I think I head an annoying ‘waaah’ sound from somewhere in the carriage. Well, that’s my story!

Answers Me posted:I’m not going to listen to any moralising on racism from the Labour right, but this was clearly a dumb thing to say that plainly ‘deserves’ (though will be gleefully pounced upon, ofc) all the blowback she’s going to get from it… https://twitter.com/Baddiel/status/1650068217782566915?t=nWUUnPRBICvrbsxstybQMQ&s=19 I feel like what she was going for was "this is what the technical definition of racism is," and in my experience no matter how carefully that's worded, people tend to view it as "that's not serious enough to be viewed as racism." Also that's not what the technical definition of racism is either.

It's an omission so glaring, and simultaneously necessary for the premise to stand, that I don't remotely get how she didn't think of it.

It's rather frustrating that the left of the Labour Party, the few who remain, keep just loving tapdancing into the giant open bear trap labelled "Jewish Topics" when Starmer is looking for every reason to purge anyone non-white.

No alert here (also on Three). Guess I’m going to be getting caught short in the event of a nuclear attack.

But that's what I struggle to buy, if she actually acknowledged the loving holocaust shaped hole in that series of statements it would invalidate what she wrote earlier. It does not appear unfinished but rather the whole thing is just wrong. "I wrote it by mistake" is the kind of non-explanation I would expect from that dickhead who put "I'll sort out the travellers" on their campaign leaflets.

What's interesting is the deafening silence around sectarianism. Sectarianism isn't racism, but that's not the same as saying sectarianism isn't as bad as racism. And there's often intersection too, such as when it is assumed that any member of an ethnic group or clade is by definition involved in a certain religious group (like the blurred line between Islamophobia and Asian bashing). But even without that sectarianism is plenty capable of causing a lot of damage, yet doesn't often get its own discussion in England (other than to blame Northern Ireland for inventing violence). e: ^^^ Should have done it in Edinburgh for the troll value.

lol this is why the corbyn project failed. left constantly umming and ahhing while the right latch on to it like it's mein kampf. if Diane Abbot hasn't earned the right for some leeway to properly explain herself then who the gently caress is going to get any support This is not a suspendable offense nevermind taking the whip and hounding her out of Westminster.
