Are we about to get a free and separate Scotland, united Ireland, and Wales?

I think the fracture is stating to form. I’m not sure how close today’s proclamation is to our Declaration of Independence, but it’s a start.

The Scotts are siding with the Muslims. You have to understand that these breakaway movements are about re-joining the EU and being more globohomo, not less.

...and of course it's behind a paywall.

This would make England a lot more conservative politically.

The SNP was the "new Labour" a few cycles ago (similar to how Reform/Restore are supposed to be the "new Torries")

Removing the Scotting leftists from the UK Parliament alone is going to cause a huge shift right. I think Sinn Fein are also basically commies.

Sein Feinn were huge Muslim supporters in Ireland due to the alliance of the PLO and IRA during the Troubles. However, the upswells of anti-Muslim sentiment in Ireland is growing, and Sein Feinn may be fracturing on that issue. However, SNP and Sein Fein have traditionally been anti-UK, but pro globalist. The Scotts aspire to use oil money to transition into a woke green energy welfare state.

They all want to join the EU. If they think they're overwhelmed with 'migrants' now, just wait.

Scotland has tried with referendum time after time and failed. Wales doesn't have the votes either. Northern Ireland is heavily Protestant, never happen. Not sure the ROI wants them anyways.

Brexit passed because it was supposed to give the UK the authority to reduce immigration. Leave voters were voting against immigration. They were betrayed by Parliament who did everything possible to delay and subvert Brexit. Immigration actually went UP significantly after Brexit! The brits do not hate their government nearly enough.

Yep. We are on the same side of this argument. I don’t like it when we agree

This is just the facts portion of the discussion. They don't understand the actual facts of the discussion, because I imagine who told them about this either doesn't understand the facts or is intentionally leaving them out to present a dishonest spin. Such is life in/around the echo chamber.

I don't think the SNP even wants to drill and mimic Norway's model.

good analysis, there are other factors of course, but a good paragraph explanation

Not sure the English will abandon their Protestant brethren in Northern Ireland so quickly

That could get interesting
