The UK was never a nation state to begin with. it's traditions are are shallow as bathwater, mainly based around the Empire, which people are quickly realising is a bad thing. It's four, some would even say five nations poorly stapled together with little interplay between the cultures. Each nation sees itself as it's own thing with it's own politics, identity, culture, ideologies, and even languages.

The UK is about as much a nation state as Yugoslavia was.

Well then I suggest you put the phone down from time to time and go out and experience our country from time to time.

You went to Wales and asked people if they though they should get their geopolitical opinions from Lemmy and they said yes?
