UK.gov isn't ready for no-deal Brexit – and 'secrecy' means businesses won't be either

Re: Y2K all over again

nothing too serious will happen

True. People won't be able to fly, and the queues at Dover will start to grow.

After a few days in the queue things start to get nasty, as mobs of lorry drivers roam the Kent countryside looking for food and water.

After a couple of weeks the rotting food in the lorries has attracted rats, which breed rapidly. Bubonic plague sweeps southern England.

And after a month or two the insulin supply dries up. Theresa May is okay, as she gets private supplies imported by sea from the USA.

The last makes me wonder: would an insulin-dependent diabetic be likely to get off by claiming 'self defence' if the started slaughtering pro-Brexit MPs before the final vote?
