British Clamp Restrictions On Neutral Envoys
Britain banned travel outside the country by diplomats from neutral and Allied nations except the United States, Russia and the British Commonwealth. All communications are now subject to full censorship to prevent invasion details reaching the enemy. Couriers and pouches from nations like Sweden and Brazil are also censored. The move immobilizes diplomats and staff within Britain for the time being.
