comment 4 (not comment 3).

Will Wales try to secede next. Then it would be only England and Northern Ireland for the "home nations." Odd considering Northern Ireland has been rather violent since 1917 (on and off).

Well there is the Welsh national party, Plaid Cymru - but they poll about half of what the SNP polls in their home region.

And the Senedd only has a fraction of the power that the Scots Parliament has.

As far as Northern ireland is concerned, the smartest thing the Protestants of NI could do would be to unite with the Republic of Ireland.

But they won't.
