According to the article, it's only 144-146. Here in the US, we actually have 144-148 (4Mhz wide). I wouldn't be surprised if not only the ARRL got involved but other government agencies as well, here, if this actually looked like it was going to occur.
Right now, and for the foreseeable future, the 2M band is the workhorse for things like storm spotters talking to the NWS. All storm spotting happens on a 2M repeater here as well as across networks all across the midwest. There is no simple replacement for it. There are millions of dollars in investment by thousands of smaller organizations that would be a massive burden to replace.
