United Kingdom V: Son of a beach

Or London vs rest of England

Yep. Or me vs you

Basically that

If we leave the EU, why can't Scotland leave the UK and why can't my house leave Chichester and become its own state?

Scotland is a net contributor to the UKs coffers and has about 40% of the UKs natural resources. Maybe Westminster doesn’t want to have to buy water and electricity from their neighbours to the north?
But we’ll happily supply Charlesshire for free.

If Scotland left, would they get to keep the NHS? Considering they wouldn't be part of the Nation of United Kingdom.

Used to work next door to these, their nickname of being a Northern Sweatshop makes this story no surprise. Both companies are the definition of profit above workers.

Starmer and Rayner. Happy with that. Allin-Khan should be made shadow health secretary ASAP.
