"What do we gain? Already a lot of talk in the North of England about this in the last few days and you wouldn't want to hear it. Federalism may come yet to the remainder after all. I don't think things will be rosy at all for England after the split, and I see a lot of trouble ahead for all of us."
Nonsense. I live in Northumberland, and there has been no such thing. The Scots i fly with think its ridiculous, and the Geordies just joke about cashing in on all the passport/immigration posts there would have to be.
England is and always will be a united nation of 60 million people. North and south.
