While the issue of personal security

frequently involves only immediate surroundings

While the issue of personal security

frequently involves only immediate surroundings

it is an undeniable fact that extraneous situations can

have a very real impact upon existing threats

Decision-making roles General public need

To be aware of such risks as well as the ways that they can be mitigated

LEAVING THE EU

The population has decided to leave the EU

and the Prime Minister is seeking a deal for the UK

This article points out that the United Kingdom will remain a core contributor to the

NATO alliance

Will security services and

relevant agencies be as free and as

open with one another?

Average commuter on UK's streets face a similar risk after the country leaves

the EU

TERRORISM

There is no doubt that terrorism is an issue

mentioned frequently in the news

Many believe that it is only a matter of time before a major city within the United Kingdom is attacked again

These situations can be tackled with the synergy of proactive governmental intervention and better cross-border communications between nations within the European Union and the United Kingdom

MIGRATION ISSUES

We have already seen areas within Europe such

as Germany become polarised over the issue of

mass migration

The same could very well hold true for the United Kingdom

Many analysts believe that the United Kingdom could already be “sleepwalking to catastrophe” in regards to the influx of refugees from

war-torn areas of the world such as Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan

are literally only the tip of the iceberg

Tighter border controls and more thorough background checks are two steps which need to

be taken on an administration level

GOVERNMENTAL AND LEADERSHIP CHANGES

Changes in political and leadership roles have always been prone to

cause a certain amount of instability

Most recent example can be seen in the election of the first Muslim mayor of London

We are not only referring to the potential of attacks. We also must keep in mind ethnic tensions, a rise in hate crimes and similar violent

reprisals from all sides

NATURAL THREATS

Not all of the present risks are caused by mankind and political decisions

Some of the issues which the United Kingdom (and the world as a whole) currently faces are

The impact of global warming (temperature

changes, large-scale fires or rises in sea

levels)

EarthquakesThe diminishing number of bees

Emerging or widespread

diseases

MITIGATION, DETERRENCE AND PREVENTION

The public needs to be made aware

of the risks as well as the

rewards associated with Britain

leaving the EU

Reporting suspicious

activity and realising

international travel risks

can go a long way

Brexit Terrorism

Policymakers need to

maintain a focus on security

during and immediately

after the transition

MigrationGovernmental and Leadership

Changes

UK to be less dependent

upon oil from the Middle

East, but investing now

for an environmenta

lly sound future will

help protect generations to

thorough screening standards

while bolstering the

security within high-

risk areas
