        Scaremongering? The government has told people to stockpile drugs in the event of a no deal?!?? They’re reporting the facts, it’s not scaremongering because you don’t like it

        Pretty sure what they said is companies to do it and not the public.

        And many companies aren't in a position to stockpile as they don't have the cash flow. The onus should not be on the companies to sort this out: its the responsibility of the Govt.

        Does this type of reporting remind anyone of the Millennium Bug narrative that was going to cause untold damage to Humanity. Can’t quite remember what happened it was so insignificant!

        I and my colleagues worked bloody hard in 98 and 99 to make sure that the millennium bug *didn't* cause the chaos that *definitely* would have happened, if we'd taken the current attitude of brexiters and just hoped for the best.

        I am right - I've worked in the IT industry for 35 years. What was your involvement in millennium bug work?

        Once the envy of the world, now despised by a large percentage of its own countrymen, the BBC, now just a staggering insult to the memory of those that have entertained & informed before.

        You don't like them reporting on a what people in the industry have warned? It's not like they have just made this up

        Martin Sawer, of the Healthcare Distributors Association, told MPs industry was "very concerned" about a no-deal as it could have "catastrophic" consequences for the supply of drugs. **Could Have** !!

        Exactly, that's why in the headline it says 'may' and not 'will'
