    End of the UK

    The United Kingdom's existence as a single country is at risk from nationalists, Gordon Brown says
    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/6258089.stm

    Rejoice
    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

    Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.

      So you can see where Gordon Brown is coming from. The Jocks prop up Labour.

          If Scotland / Wales leave the union, it's unlikely NL would ever be in power again. If Northern England were to go too, SE England or whatever it would be called would be one of the wealthiest (GDP per head) countries in the world.

          Dunno who would then be the cannon fodder for all those foreign excursions though.

                Exactly. We've been funding these 3rd world neighbours of ours way too long.
                Once the break up is complete, we should cut them off and let them float away.

                  Certainly re-build Hadrians wall & Offas dyke (or a £1000 toll for Eastbound over the Seven Bridge) - the sooner we get shot of these Scottish feckers deciding(milking) Englands fate - the better

                    Absolutely!

                    Annex all the counties around us too. We need to make sure we have the airports and a clear route to the sea. Leave the EU, tell the rest of the country to find their own currency (or adopt the Euro if the want), make an offer to the Scots to take the nuclear subs off their hands and we are SORTED!
