One thing I cannot understand is why the English want to continue in a union with Wales and Scotland. We would be far better off without these two mendicant states. A hard border along the Welsh Marches and along Hadrian's wall would dramatically increase the individual wealth of the 53,000,000 English people. Wales' net fiscal balance – the difference between total public spending for Wales and estimated public revenue – amounts to a deficit of £13.7 billion, or 19.4% of estimated GDP - funded by the English. Scotland is not much better at £14.1 billion (8.5% of GDP). Outside of Westminster, readers would be amazed hoe popular Wexit and Scexit are.
