I would be in favour of a three-state solution to respect the historical claims of both the Romans, the Saxons, and the Normans, with demilitarised zones under UN control at the Scottish and Welsh border. London is to be divided into three corresponding sectors. The Isle of Man should be ceded to the Republic of Ireland, and the Isle of Wight, along with the other channel islands, will be leased to the People's Republic of China for 99 years, to then assume self-governance. The public is to undergo a program of deanglification including the use of the metric system, the study of Gaelic, and a drinking ban in all football games. It will be illegal to sell food that contains less than three distinct spices. The Royal Family shall be executed in a revolutionary tribunal, and pound notes shall not remain legal tender unless the eyes on the monarch's face are crossed out with indelible ink. Westminster palace will be dismantled and become part of a permanent exhibition in the national museum in Baghdad.

I'll get the boys together, see what we can do.

I’d throw a party 🥳🎉👏🎊

Cornwall should be spared and attached to Wales but otherwise I’m good.

That will affect the trout population I think.

May TERF island be swallowed by the sea

good music would be lost... uhhh nice looking moors and bogs?

At this moment pretty salty because I’m looking forward to watching premier league football tomorrow

A lil sad that a few actors and musicians I like passed away for like a half second in between my 24 hour-long dance to the Tune of “Bang The Drum All Day”, the whole time I am slamming Guinnesses down.

kinda sad tbh, it's such a great meme country

let the US disappear instead

I have family in Ireland, so I would be a bit worried about them being dragged into the whirlpool.

If it just disappeared in a puff of smoke? I'd be inconsolable as I've lived here my entire life. Everyone that's important to me, from my friends, to my partner, to my family, all live here. My dad's ashes have been scattered here. If England disappeared tomorrow, myself and my loved ones would immediately lose our homes and our history and immediately become stateless refugees, along with the 55.9 million other people that live here.

If you mean in the sense of some kind of Balkanisation, I'd still be extremely upset. At no point in modern history has a country ever benefited from being Balkanised; from Yugoslavia, to the collapse of the USSR, to the partition of India and the colonial carve up of China, none of these countries have materially benefitted from being divided up in this way. The people living in all of the examples cited experienced incredible suffering and instability as a direct result of Balkanisation. In England's (and more widely, the UK's) case, it would almost certainly be preyed upon by the US and the EU. Its hard enough for the British establishment to compete on a level playing field with the other imperialist powers as it is with Great Britain unified, let alone if it was split apart into several smaller and poorer independent states.

Does this mean England should exist as it does today? I don't think so, personally. I believe the UK's best future (beyond the scope of a socialist revolution, of course) is in forming a federative republic, within which England would need to be legislatively split into smaller administrative units so that it doesn't perpetuate the existing relationship between England and the rest of the UK. A federal division of the UK should be weighted primarily by population, with the aim being to ensure that each administrative unit is a similar size to Wales or Scotland, meaning a range of 3-5 million people. This means some regions of England, such as Yorkshire, the South West or the East Midlands, would translate well into such a federative system. Others would need to be redesignated, such as the North West or the South East.

I have an array of comrades there I don't want to see gone that live there, as is true for each country.

i wouldn't exist anymore

I guess that means Scotland and Wales are free + United Ireland
