"Brexit: Email slip-up reveals no-deal fishing patrol 'uncertainty'"
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-49302778
There is "a lot of uncertainty" about the UK's capacity to patrol
fishing waters after a no-deal Brexit, a memo from a government
department mistakenly emailed to the BBC says.
The note says there are just 12 ships "to monitor a space three times
the size of the surface area of the UK".
The memo from the Department for the Environment, Food and Rural
Affairs was discussing media stories.
But ministers said they are confident security will be enforced after
Brexit.
