They would be ready within hours of a terrorist outrage.

This phrase makes me skeptical about intent of the article, regardless of the content. Is the use of the term "outrage" just a British substitute for "attack", or is this a poor translation from the Arabic?

Yeah right, but us other 10% have good reason to despise the cheese eating surrender monkeys.

I'm not sure what you are skeptical about. At any rate, any such evacuation plan would be British and so certainly not in Arabic.

"Umpteen years of cold war with thousands of nukes on both sides, and the Brits haven't had evacuation plans before this? Now, that I would have kept secret :))."

Well, you pretty much answered that yourself. Thousands of nukes and one small island, where can you escape to if your entire country has been reduced to a giant sheet of glass?
