Looks like Boris is going to get everything he wants - car bombs, Semtex explosions, kneecappings....

There's a fair chance that this election will mean the dissolution of the UK.

Boris only cares about Boris, Corbin can't make a decision to save his life and the others have no chance anyway.

@Boru - Perhaps, yes, at least some of it...almost certainly not Wales however, I think.

I was thinking chiefly of Scotland. They desperately want to stay in the EU, and might very well vote to leave GB in order to do so. By law, 'The United Kingdom of
Great Britain and Northern Ireland' has to include Scotland as a constituent country of Great Britain.
On reflection, I suppose they could simply change the name...

That's an interesting point Boru...overseas territories (eg - The Falklands) are not given in that name, so it's already inaccurate....the glaring nature of Great Britain missing Scotland though would surely be too much though, even for the least semantically pedantic. If I were a Scot living in Scotland this morning, I'd be banging on the table shouting "INDEPENDENCE NOW!" I might imagine.
