But the United Kingdom would remain.
Yes, so a proportionally less great Great Britain would be a less united United Kingdom.
Considering how centralized power and wealth of the United Kingdom is focused in London, and how much influence of London derives from its status and international financial center, I don't expect internationally Britain would be much reduced as a result of this, unless Britain were to lose her nuclear arsenal or UNSC permanent seat as a result of this.
