Emergency border exercises will take place at ports and airports next month to see how they would cope with a no-deal Brexit.
Fake passengers and even lorries of sheep could be used in the practice runs to test Border Force computer systems and staff.
Ministers were told of the plans as part of a Cabinet meeting last week where they agreed to ramp up preparations for the possibility of leaving the EU in March without an agreement.

Chancellor Philip Hammond is also looking at slashing business rates in the event of no deal, the Sunday Times reported.
Corporation tax is set at 19 per cent and under existing plans is set to fall to 17 per cent by 2020.
It is claimed Mr Hammond could cut it even further so the country remains an attractive place to do business.
At the Tory conference in October, Mr Hammond said he was maintaining ‘fiscal firepower to support our economy’ if there is no deal.

Last January, he suggested to German newspaper Die Welt that the UK could change its ‘economic model’, leading to claims he wanted to turn the country into a low-tax, low-regulation ‘Singapore-on-Thames’.
Mr Hammond said: ‘We could suffer from economic damage at least in the short-term.
In this case, we could be forced to change our economic model and we will have to change our model to regain competitiveness.’

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
