This threat of a mutiny thing - there is a standing plan for Guards units to take control of broadcast-comms-transport-govt infrastructure. Forgotten what it's called, but it's a full plan, on the desk, ready to go. "In 1974 the Army occupied Heathrow Airport on the grounds of training for possible IRA terrorist action at the airport. However Baroness Falkender (a senior aide and close friend of Wilson) asserted that the operation was ordered as a practice-run for a military takeover or as a show of strength, as the government itself was not informed of such an exercise based around a key point in the nation's transport infrastructure.[SUP][10][/SUP]" from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Wil..._coup_plot sounds reasonable enough. Reminds me of the 'tanks' that turned-up at Heathrow a while ago.
Ho-hum.
Ho-hum.
