I live in Wales.

My country is part of UK but it is not England or Scotland. She is a small country but she has her own language. You will not hear Wales crying out for independence. We have been given our own government and this has brought to an end the burning of English homes, the blowing up of pipelines.
But any talk of reducing the powers of the Welsh government will re-ignite those flames and we've heard a few comments from the man in Number 10.
If you want the UK to continue, maybe you should think carefully who will lead it.

I think the UK (Great Britain plus Ireland) is guaranteed to disappear. Great Britain (England including Wales, plus Scotland) looks a bit shakey too, it might be back to England (with Wales, b/c that didnt merit a separate name apparently)

@Yulianna UK is Great Britain and Northern Ireland. But UK is becoming an idea rather than a fact. it's all beginning to unravel. Northern Ireland is effectively part of the EU. Scotland is only just in the UK. Wales has its own language and is making sure everyone uses it. I think quite a few English people would prefer to go it alone and be rid of their annoying neighbours.

@Blodyn 🇺🇦❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 yes, probably... though there is a case for Wales and Scotland joining Ireland in a Celtic Federation.

@Yulianna I would love to see that. And Cornwall and Brittany and the Isle of Man. Six similar languages and cultures. But it would have to be a very loose federation to avoid the mistakes of binding countries together. I understand that the Education Ministers of Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland already meet up regularly. It's why Wales is about to change its system of term dates away from the English model.

BoJo doesn't give a fuck about the United bit of United Kingdom. He's an England supremacist and an elitist.

The partygate was his "Let them eat cake" moment.

@Longpatrol You heard he thinks he will have three terms as PM?

Blodyn · 22-25, F

@Blodyn I find this so interesting. Just over a week ago Mr Johnson was saying he would have three terms in office and still be Prime Minister in the 2030's. But a week is a long time in politics.

@Longpatrol 🤔 wasn't that Carrie Antoinette?
