UK government’s wildfire phone alert system has ‘absolutely backfired’

News24 Digital Presenter Gabriella Power says the UK government’s wildfire phone alert system has “absolutely backfired”. Ms Power said people all over social media are “really angry” with the government. “Millions of people had their mobile phones just bleeping with the severe alert notification last week, stating that there was a very high risk of wildfires nationally and cautioned against barbecues.”
