A federal UK will not work. It hands the nuclear button to Bute House. This is how Yugoslavia ended. Lib Dems know it. They have pushed this obsession for 100 years. They did it in Ireland. Now they want it for a different reason. To break up the UK, to pull us back into the EU.

I disagree, Jonathan. In fact, I firmly believe a federal structure is the ONLY way to save the UK. However, my view is predicated on where you draw state boundaries within such a federation. Where we agree, I think, is Scotland, for example, cannot be a single state. 1/2

Drawing borders that create 'super counties', rather than nation states, would be my answer. My own feeling is Scotland should exist across three states: Highlands & Islands; Central Scotland; and Northumbria/ Cumbria/ Borders & D&G. Then, people would have a local voice. 2/2

This is the only way i would ever support federalism. If we did federalism along the lines you are suggestion (id go further and divide the federal states even further than just 3 in Scotland, perhaps current Scottish parliament regional areas as a starting point) but cant be 1

That i would support too. But the problem is we know thats not what labour or the lib dems will advocate. They want a federal UK where England is broken into regions, whilst Scotland, Wales and NI remain as individual entities That is what would destroy the UK. Itd be a disaster

It's for the EU. The LibDems were created one year after the Single European Act to promote the EU within the UK. They will never stop doing that. It's their primary mission.
