What's the biggest issue facing the U.K. Internally?

how do we feel about the PM? The Monarchy? Prince Charles?

Think Charles is running out of time so it may go to William, although there is talk of a referendum on getting rid of the monarchy after Lizzy dies. Teresa May is just a typical Tory. Don't think she has the support Cameron had but Corbyn is undermined by his MPs too much for him to mount a challenge. Biggest thing right now is when article 50 will be triggered and we will start the process for leaving the EU. There's also the possibility of a second Scottish referendum (hopefully I won't be from the UK much longer). Plus the English and maybe the Welsh NHS is in "crisis" as the Tories continue to dismantle it and try to privatise more and more.

@Jackjjacksonjr: For me it's not getting the Tories when we never vote for them but even if we were to vote them it would be us doing it. Not a nation that is similar in many ways but I see as different to mine. Plus we our oil would no longer be squandered.

Actually today May has indicated it will be a "hard Brexit" and the Scottish parliament just voted overwhelmingly to protect Scotland's place in the single market at all costs. Appears to be getting closer.
