I despise the British Empire just as much as I hate the Spanish, Portuguese, French and Dutch colonists. I like the country as it is. England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland under one government. If any of these became independent through devolution, we would all become a laughing stock.

Oh and no invading other countries and making them our slaves.
