You really think that the UK might not exist within a decade? I honestly think that's idealistic/wishful thinking.

I think it's entirely possible that the UK will have a huge economic crash and at that point Ireland and Scotland could exist the union as a result. All the economic indicators right now show that the UK is in really deep trouble, and it's likely only gonna get worse going forward.

I can't shake the feeling that the uk is gonna follow the same path as the ottoman empire and 100 years from now england will be like turkey today
