BBC在线收听下载:英国发布无协议脱欧应急计划
The British government has published a document outlining its contingency plans in the event of a no-deal Brexit. The Operation Yellowhammer papers predict major hold-up such as channel ports and shortages of fresh food and medicine. They also warn a risk of public disorder. The British government has meanwhile refused the demand to release internal communications between the prime minister’s top advisors about the decision to suspend parliament. Earlier, opposition MPs demanded parliament be recalled immediately after Scotland’s highest civil court ruled the suspension was unlawful. The government says it will appeal to the Supreme Court.
