The article points out that Russia doesn't need to drop a bomb on the UK. They just need to blow some up at high altitude to trigger an EMP. Such an attack would make Britain basically a medieval nation once more, as it would effectively fry the power grid and most of the systems (transportation, the Thames barrier, banking systems, etc).
There is a lot of stuff British people need electricity for, and the grid here, like in America, isn't robust enough to survive a pulse attack like that. And when it goes down, everything goes with it, effectively. Kier would be a fool to even let a single member of the army step foot in Ukraine for a war based purpose.
