IT’S nearly three years since the Brexit referendum. Unless you were under 18, outside the UK, or too angry to bother voting at all, you probably remember the ballot paper. And the options it listed did not include “martial law in the United Kingdom.”
It’s a sign of the state we’re now in that when the Sunday Times reported on civil servants making plans for the possible introduction of martial law, it didn’t even put it on the front page.
It quoted anonymous Whitehall sources saying that martial law had been discussed as one of several options for dealing with the breakdown of public order following a no-deal Brexit.
