It's now been on the news that 20,000 army personnel are on standby. It was said that they are going to assist the police and will shortly be taking over the guarding of no 10.
The PM looked tired, stressed and confused at todays briefing- it must be a tremendous burden having this responsibility on his mind, so he probably isn't sleeping.
As he will obviously be taking advice from experts, we are now effectively in a wartime situation, party political dogma has been ripped up and opposition parties have dropped rivalries in an effort to help as much as they can I think that it might now be an idea to form a coalition government of solidarity.

I have no doubt that Boris has his best biro poised over the Civil Contingencies Act as we speak. There is obviously a risk that critical services are going to run short of personnel if too many people are off sick at once. What is obviously fanciful is the idea that the army is flying front line combat hardware into civilian airports, or using heavy lift helicopters to drop personnel or equipment off in our cities. This isn’t Kandahar. They can just use the motorways.
