sounds like pep is ok with it
so if anyone but tories win the next election, pep is ok with letting the tories stay on
while we work out a transition deal
because pep respects democracy like that
tbf the UK isn't a direct democracy
we don't formulate policy via referenda
But the remainers need to realize that there will be serious political consequences if they ignore the 2016 vote to leave
Why don't England and Wales just secede from the Union and then leave without a deal?
Both voted majority Leave so it would make sense
And then you wouldn't have the Scottish complaining about being taken out against their will
The scots would probably support that
But it would be a gigantic clusterfuck to split the military
And then Northern Ireland could just stay with Scotland or re-join the Republic of Ireland
The Military could be fixed over time
I mean you're playing willy nilly with one of the oldest unions on earth.
Nothing of what you're saying is as simple as you're saying
It's a potential solution
EU is fair game since is what 40 years old
Each country gets what it voted for
We are getting out before it becomes even more difficult
Scotland and Northern Ireland get to Remain and they voted to Remain, England and Wales both voted to leave and get to leave
However it wouldn't work like that though
Plus lot's of the Scottish already support Independence
Since Scotland and NI would both need to reapply
As they arnt really countries right now
And arnt independent
But the United Kingdom wouldn't be leaving
And the requirements to join both countries would not meet
England and Wales would just be seceding from the United Kingdom
the EU isnt 40 yrs old... its barely 20
The United Kingdom wouldn't have left
the EEC ... which is different, is older
but that was "just a trade bloc"
It's like if Catalonia got it's independence, Spain wouldn't need to reapply to re-join the EU because of it
now its "just a trade bloc.... with a flag.. and an anthem... and an armed forces branch, and an air force branch.. and an intelligence department..."
It would cease to be the UK
Scotland would still be the UK
England is the seat of government
along with Northern Ireland
It is the seat of the monarch
It is the seat of the SC
