UK Government’s No-Deal Brexit Plan Containing Chaos Predictions Released

LONDON: Documents revealing the UK government’s no-deal Brexit plan, which lists a hard Irish border, chaos at the ports along with fuel and medicine, were released by the Downing Street. But on Wednesday, only redacted versions of the ‘Operation Yellowhammer’ documents were released, in response to MPs forcing the government to release the file before Parliament was suspended, or prorogued, on Tuesday, The Daily Mail reported.

Despite this, the newly released government dossier of “worst case planning assumptions” says a no-deal Brexit would lead to delays in medicine, illegal fishing boats, public disorder, delays at the border and rising food prices for those on the lowest incomes. The document, which features 20 “key planning assumptions”, also includes electricity price increases, delays to medicine imports, protests across the UK and disruption to the financial services sector. Reacting to the documents, Shadow Brexit Secretary Keir Starmer said: “(Prime Minister) Boris Johnson must now admit that he has been dishonest with the British people about the consequence of a no-deal Brexit.’’ (IANS)
