Ireland, Wales, Cornwall and Scotland should be granted full independence and England should be divided up in several smaller countries all under a peacekeeping force.
Just looking back on various photos and clips of life in the UK throughout the 20th century and god… what a wasteland of the soul.
A land of utterly miserable conformist dregs, living just to drink and smoke and drive cars along grey congested roads through grey congested towns under a grey congested sky. A land of boiled vegetables and beige plastic and black mold crawling up the ugly, ugly wallpaper. A land of paedophiles with knighthoods hosting charity TV specials to fight child poverty (now celebrating its Xth decade - still fighting child poverty). A land of prestige motor vehicles driven by ashen-faced, flabby-cheeked home county men who build model spitfires and write lists of names for fascist governments. A land of simpering desperation to join, that is, fuck your way into, the nobility - endless, breathless news rags and radio programs and television shows obsessed over and obsequious to the persons and paraphernalia of a class of horrid scum that any civilized society would have publically and brutally executed a long time ago. And all of it saturated in the smug, smirking, self-satisfied, delusional afterglow of the Empire, as if reflecting on its deeds should bring a twinkly-eyed smile to one’s lips rather than a projectile spray of vomit - and all of it powered by not one single iota of “”“British”“” muscle, but rather a ceaseless, thundering waterfall of blood and sweat from the third world. It sickens me.
God, it SICKENS ME, and there’s so much more I can add to my LITANY OF HATE but for my own sake I’m going to stop. What an awful, awful, horrible place and time to have lived in and what awful, horrible people to have lived amongst - and this was supposed to be better than Soviet socialism? This was the “free world”? Disgusting.
Oi mate youve got a loicense for that there hate
His hate is pure.
This is some real poetry.

Stop giving Scotland absolution. Scotland wasn’t another dominated colony, Scotland was a somewhat equal and willing participant in England’s sins. Scotland should be given some level of independence under the oversight of Ireland
People forget Scotland became part of the UK because they tried to do colonialism and were really bad at it.
Scotland became part of the UK because a bunch of aristocrats wanted the same power england had. The average peasant scot had no say really in the matter.
When someone says a country took an action, they mean the government or the powerful. When you say America commits war crimes it isn’t implying that every US citizen has personally done a war crime
Every american is a war criminal
So, these are war criminals?
The homeless population is over represented by veterans so probably
That simply isn’t true

Damn dude, really?
So pointing out the average Scottish peasant had no say in matters of government isn’t worth pointing out
I mean it is when people bitch at scots for disliking and England and wanting independence, and then do the soy wojack face and say “but scotland participated in the empire too You have no right to complain”.
Which people often do. Like it’s some hidden knowledge that the upper classes of lowland scotland were balls deep in the british empire.
Again, if we’re going by that logic wales shouldn’t bitch either.
I don’t know, I’m done with this thread though and you either agree with me or don’t.
( Not you specifically my friend, just people reading this thread in general)
Fine by me.
Scottish Mandate, with a Highland self governance zone as a test case with right to return for the descendants of the highland enclosures
This would include wales than too. The welsh and Cornish participated in the empire. Not as much as the scots, but they did.
I’m just saying by your logic using participation in the empire as a metric.
Wales was conquered, Scotland’s king took over as king of England too. Those feel like pretty different scenarios.
Still participated in the empire and the spread of british imperialism.
They entered the empire in different ways yes, and you’d think wales being conquered would make them absolutely against participating in the empire in any form, but they did participate , and sometimes enthusiastically so.
Wales and Cornwall do not get a pass.
If we are going to try and exclude scotland the same needs to be brought up about wales.
Don’t know much about Ireland besides the plantations.
But this post isn’t about historical activity, it’s about the present. Where Scotland is a significantly less evil force than England specifically.
no term limits
no constitution, through Parliament the ruling regime can overrule the judiciary at will and ignore human rights treaties
antidemocratic electoral system where a party winning 1/3rd of the vote gets 2/3rds of seats
state media spewing hatred towards refugees and trans people, inciting violent riots
Chairman Xi, my people yearn for freedom
I say we sink England the same way we did Atlantis.
That’s a lot of nukes
We gotta nuke something
I hear they have WMDs. Starmer must go.
England can go back to those 5 kingdom thingys, Wessex, Middlesex, Anglia, and so on. Then they can fight over who counts as the most English
Sus sex 😳
How about Ireland, Wales, Cornwall, Scotland, Isle of Man, and whoever else forming a new Celtic Union?
Brittany. The Bretons straight up exist because they escaped the angloid invasions. Also some great music
It was actually more likely picts and scoti they were fleeing from and those are most likely the “barbarians” described in groans of the Britain’s.
The anglos were invited over by briton ruling class to push the picts and scoti out.
And soon became the ruling class themselves.
Even the english have majority native British blood, because the germanic warriors intermarried with local women. It’s why the english are sometimes referred to as ‘germanized celts’.
Honestly the dark ages is my favorite era or history so I’m obsessed with this stuff.
So the same thing the Teutons tried to pull
Not familiar with the teutons. Did they try and exterminate most of the local men in the area they invaded, and then marry the local women? Because in a lot of england that’s what the germanic invaders did.
Some are starting to think the anglo saxon invasion of Britain similar in some ways to the Spaniards and indigenous people in South America.
They invaded the Baltics as part of a crusade, and very quickly got approval to just annex for themselves the part of Poland belonging to their host Konrad I who they had been hired to serve. They just kept doing this and eventually built a state. Essentially they formed to exterminate “pagans” in Prussia and defend western Poland, and then conquered the Catholic land anyways and then invaded further and further all the way to their wars with the Novgorod Republic.
For a not exactly accurate but important snapshot of how that turned out watch the Eisenstein film Alexander Nevsky which dramatizes the famous Battle of the Ice and has one of the best scores in film history https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOgoGCP7Ujw It is such a blatant comparison to the Germans but it fucking works and goes HARD. They have soldiers wearing obvious stahlhelms. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gq4PaJfod4w

Do you really want your children growing up in a world where England doesn’t exist? I thought so

The problem with Brexit is it didn’t go far enough
Bremolition Brerby? Bruclear Brannihilation?

The main argument against Scottish independence was membership of the EU and now they don’t have that so what’s the point?
Its time for China to Annex West Taiwan (formerly England).
That’s the Liberated Chinese Island of the old Kingdom
