It is good in different ways

For England and Wales, they get the hard Brexit they wanted

For Scotland, having yet again a government in Westminster that they didn’t want, coupled with a Brexit they don’t want will strengthen the hands of the nationalists even more. This is exactly the result that Nicola Sturgeon and the Scottish Nationalists wanted?

For northern Ireland, the DUP lost two seats and now have zero influence in Westminster. The Boris deal leaves northern Ireland in the EU customs union and makes reunification in the next 5 years more likely than ever.

So it is good for the 4 nations that make up the union.
