Local authorities are making their own individual arrangements and MP's from all parties have warned that problems may arise, particularly if we leave without a deal.

Any chance you could provide a link to anything that substantiates this allegation, please?
There was an article in the Times early September about how the military could be called upon to transport food and medicine, but I can’t find any substantive information on ‘ the army can be brought in to quash civil unrest’.
