The UK union or the EU ? 17:52 - Dec 5 with 3598 views | trampie | If there is to be a second referendum on Brexit it looks like that the upshot of the vote will be to determine whether the UK says together or not. A second leave vote will mean an end to the UK in the short term whereas a remain vote will keep the UK intact for the medium term. | |

The UK union or the EU ? on 20:13 - Dec 5 with 3509 views | LeonWasGod | I don't see how. Scotland are the closest but they don't have enough support to break away. N. Ireland aren't going anywher, especially with the DUP calling the shots in Westminster. And Wales has an identity crisis and has tied itself up with the language issue, meaning it's people are probably the furthest from wanting a break from the UK. | | | |

So there was a lady called the Maybot and she spent 2 years getting a very bad deal, that means the british border in the north of ireland will mean different treatment from mainland uk. And Scotland voted Remain. As did the north of ireland. The union will be dead in 5 years. | |

So we'll have a hard border in Swansea West then shall we? Why do people say thing slike this as if it's significant? It's what the majority votes for that matters. Or it should. As we have seen, our politicians are busy subverting the vote. I'll still take the Union but it is something I've wondered about. If the EU shifted to proper elections for the leadership positions I could go with it but having unelected politicians decide who will succeed them is wrong. There's corruption, nepotism and self interest as we saw with "two promotions in ten minutes Martin Selmayr" | |

It will be under WTO which I think is what the Torys want anyway and all that's going on now is just a big political game | | | |

Most of the Tory party want to remain. The EU dresses itself up as worker friendly but ti's more compatible with corporate greed. Lets face it, the EU is making it easier for people to travel far and wide to look for work. There is massive emigration/immigration but why are people these days calling that a good thing? When Norman Tebbit said get on your bike and look for work he was condemned for it. Yet today people consider it a good thing that millions have to uproot and look for work hundreds of miles from home. It's not helping our society but it is helping the coporate greed section. Wages are kept down, cheap labour is plentiful and their profits are booming and people say it's good? | |

Scotland wants independence, so it will mean them leaving the EU A country that wants independence but still wants pounds sterling as their currency How dull is that Then if they were then admitted to the EU they would then be forced to take the Euro as their currency Myself I would leave them go and then wait a few years for them to come crawling back, as they did once before | | | |

The Scottish, well their politicians want the best of both worlds. They haven't even considered that leaving the UK could happen fairly quickly and there could be a few years gap between that and being allowed to join the EU, assuming they were allowed. The OP, well Trampie is making it up anyway. Another referendum doesn't mean indepepdence is any closer for any UK member, he's just sabre rattling again, hoping the more noise he makes about it the more people will agree. Trampie and Kilkenny are very much in the minority. | |

You must be dull to think that the Union will be dead in 5 years Wales haven’t a chance in hell to go independent Northern Ireland will without a doubt stay in the Union And the people of Scotland are not that dull, that they know taxes will rise more than the rest of the U.K. as they have already done to fill the budget deficit they will undoubtly have The support for the SNP is already on the wane, with it falling even more in the coming years with their idealogical push for independence | | | |

The SNP want independence. The people of Scotland REJECTED independence is their most recent referendum. The electorate voted 55 per cent to 45 per cent in favour of Scotland remaining within the UK. 2014 Not sure Wales ever had a referendum on independence but only a 7,000 majority in favour of the Welsh Assembly. NI had a 98.9 percent vote to remain in the UK in their 1973 referendum | |

Swansea has three constituencies, two of them (Swansea West and Gower) voted to remain. It was the huge majority for leave in Swansea East that swung the city as a whole for leave. These are only best guesses mind, the votes were counted by council area, not parliamentary constituency. | |

Although some people might say .... Scotland voted against independence as that assured they stay in the EU. Now thats no longer the case, then indy2 is going to happen. And tben Scotland will be free. The north of Ireland will have a majority catholic republican population by 2021. Its not 1973 anymore. And the GFA ensures that then the island of Iteland will be free. That leaves Cymru. Englands first and last colony. The dynamics of Englands Brexit and both Ireland and Scotland breaking free, will change Wales. Wales in the EU like Ireland and Scotland - or stuck with England in a brexidiot nightmare. The union is dead. | |

Plaid heartlands across Wales and Labour heartlands in the South are Remain. Labour areas in the North and Conservative areas in Wales and what was Liberal areas in mid Wales are for the deal. | |
