Diversity may have already killed England and Scotland
What’s going to be interesting is the Crown Prince William who is assuming the duties of the Crown.
What will he do to oppose the death of the English people for whom he is responsible?
The British monarch has limited powers. And the House of Commons could abolish the monarchy in one day.
But the monarch is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. Would William be bold enough to stage a military coup to save his country?
I’m guessing the chance of that happening is less than 1%. Because it’s so much easier to kick the can down the road.
The British monarch (king or queen) has no real power. It's a facade to placate monarchists and tradition.
"The British system is defined as a "constitutional monarchy," a form of government in which a hereditary monarch reigns but does not rule. The authority of the monarch is categorized into the "dignified" and "efficient" parts of the constitution, a distinction famously made by Walter Bagehot in his seminal 1867 work, The English Constitution. The "dignified" part refers to the ceremonial and symbolic role that excites the loyalty of the people, while the "efficient" part refers to the actual work of government carried out by the Prime Minister and Cabinet. The monarch's authority over the government is encapsulated in the "Royal Prerogative." These are powers that historically belonged to the King or Queen and have not been superseded by Acts of Parliament. Today, these powers are exercised "on the advice" of Her/His Majesty's Ministers. This means that while the monarch signs the documents, the decision-making power lies with the Prime Minister." - Reference: 'Bagehot, Walter. The English Constitution.'
Before 1900, England and Scotland were ALREADY very diversified:
the English North (Yorkshire, Lancashire, etc) are quite, quite different from the midlands and both are different from the south (Sussex,) and the west country (Devon, etc.)
The kingdom of England was only created in the early 1000s by combining different kingdoms and also combining with Norse peoples and with absorbed Cornishmen etc. Then came the Normans and they were again with a french speaking ruling class.
They only really united in the 1600s
The Scots have always been highly diversified - the kingdom of the Picts in the north-west were conquered by the Scotti - who came from Ireland and then they conquered the Britons around Glasgow (Alt Cluith). Then they had the norse around Edinburgh and later French-Norman elite.
By the 1700s this HIGHLY diverse English-Scottish-Welsh union took in tons of Huguenots, Dutch, Jews from Spain etc. etc.
The ‘diversity’ that is killing the UK is adding Islam to that mix pure and simple
In every other case of diversity, things can be managed, but not this philosophy
