12. Support for Reunification ....

Has always been strong in the Republic....that's not the problem. The majority of people in NORTHERN Ireland don't want it.....however, the Protestant majority in NI is now barely there. ....so if Brexit happens....Reunification chances increase.....however, there's likely to be a lot of blood shed so no one really knows.

Brexit is already an economic disaster. The problem with Wales is that it's economy has pretty much sucked forever already. An underlying factor in those voting to leave was jobs. Their thinking was about the extent of..... 'well all those Polish people and Eastern Europeans will go home now and all these jobs will magically appear for us'....nevermind that we didn't want the jobs to begin with because the pay was too low.

Fwiw....I'm no expert and pretty much no one knows what is going to happen next.....especially the idiot Tories and the racist UKIPs who got us into this mess in the first place.
