The UK has Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales. Scotland, particularly, is anti-authoritarian.

The only thing that kept Scotland from voting for independence was a promise the UK would stay in the EU. If the Scottish referendum was to happen today, I don’t think England would win their vote.

And leaving the EU has caused massive complications for the Good Friday agreement that specifically agreed to removing border controls between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.

Yet none of these countries were able to apply enough pressure to change the UK government’s downward spiral.
