The breakup of the UK is inevitable. The 4 nations in the UK were only held together by:
  1. The Empire
  2. The monarchy
  3. Protestant Christianity

The Empire is gone, the monarchy is a thing for the gladrags and the UK is post-Christian. They have no other unifying factor. Once the Empire fell, it was only time for the UK to dismember itself

A recent poll showed that 2/3rds of UK citizenry didn't know what Waterloo was (the Battle of Waterloo that is -- it's the bicentenary this year)
