Uk Minus Scotland

[Hopkirk]

What should we call ourselves if our brothers and sisters vote for independance?

We'd still be the UK but the definition of what the UK stands for would have to be changed as we would be a united kingdom consisting of England, Wales, Northern Ireland but Scotland would still be part of the landmass of Great Britain.

Interestingly but going off on a bit of a tangent, I read a survey somewhere revealed that a greater percentage of the English population were in favour of Scottish independence than that of the Scottish population. Perhaps those south of the border should also participate in the referendum.

That should be right, Douglas 9401, but the odd thing is that without NI we are Great Britain. Only the addition of NI makes us the United Kingdom. Strange.
