And then you wouldn't have the Scottish complaining about being taken out against their will

2019-10-07 14:33:29 UTC  

The scots would probably support that

2019-10-07 14:34:16 UTC  

But it would be a gigantic clusterfuck to split the military

2019-10-07 14:34:27 UTC  

And then Northern Ireland could just stay with Scotland or re-join the Republic of Ireland

2019-10-07 14:34:53 UTC  

The Military could be fixed over time

2019-10-07 14:35:02 UTC  

I mean you're playing willy nilly with one of the oldest unions on earth.

2019-10-07 14:35:25 UTC  

Nothing of what you're saying is as simple as you're saying

2019-10-07 14:35:37 UTC  

It's a potential solution

2019-10-07 14:35:46 UTC  

EU is fair game since is what 40 years old

2019-10-07 14:35:48 UTC  

Each country gets what it voted for

2019-10-07 14:36:02 UTC  

We are getting out before it becomes even more difficult

2019-10-07 14:36:12 UTC  

Scotland and Northern Ireland get to Remain and they voted to Remain, England and Wales both voted to leave and get to leave

2019-10-07 14:36:27 UTC  

However it wouldn't work like that though

2019-10-07 14:36:34 UTC  

Plus lot's of the Scottish already support Independence

2019-10-07 14:36:36 UTC  

Since Scotland and NI would both need to reapply

2019-10-07 14:36:45 UTC  

As they arnt really countries right now

2019-10-07 14:36:49 UTC  

And arnt independent

2019-10-07 14:37:01 UTC  

But the United Kingdom wouldn't be leaving

2019-10-07 14:37:08 UTC  

And the requirements to join both countries would not meet

2019-10-07 14:37:14 UTC  

England and Wales would just be seceding from the United Kingdom

2019-10-07 14:37:15 UTC  

the EU isnt 40 yrs old... its barely 20

2019-10-07 14:37:23 UTC  

The United Kingdom wouldn't have left

2019-10-07 14:37:30 UTC  

the EEC ... which is different, is older

2019-10-07 14:37:37 UTC  

but that was "just a trade bloc"

2019-10-07 14:38:05 UTC  

It's like if Catalonia got it's independence, Spain wouldn't need to reapply to re-join the EU because of it

2019-10-07 14:38:17 UTC  

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..."

2019-10-07 14:38:50 UTC  

It would cease to be the UK

2019-10-07 14:38:56 UTC  

Scotland would still be the UK

2019-10-07 14:38:59 UTC  

England is the seat of government

2019-10-07 14:39:00 UTC  

along with Northern Ireland

2019-10-07 14:39:05 UTC  

It is the seat of the monarch

2019-10-07 14:39:09 UTC  

It is the seat of the SC

2019-10-07 14:39:22 UTC  

The UK would still be England and co

2019-10-07 14:39:32 UTC  

The Union doesn't move

2019-10-07 14:39:47 UTC  

It would be like Washington DC leaving the Union

2019-10-07 14:39:49 UTC  

If England left the Union then the Union would remain with the countries that didn't leave

2019-10-07 14:39:54 UTC  

OK the seat of gov just leaves

2019-10-07 14:40:00 UTC  

England can't just take the Union with them

2019-10-07 14:40:23 UTC  

England has the vast majority of the population

2019-10-07 14:40:29 UTC  

I'd say they could of they wanted

2019-10-07 14:41:01 UTC  

Plus the armed forces, the HQ of everything important is in England.
