Hello Michiel,

The British claim to the northern part of Ireland will be
relinquished as the Republic of Ireland remains part of the
EU. Catholics now comprise a majority of the population,
easily outnumbering Protestants.

Scotland is already threatening to declare independence.
Wales may follow. Northern Ireland will simply cease to exist,
as it becomes part of the Republic of Ireland.

Maybe London will become a modern independent city-state.
Kind of like Singapore. Or Monaco. Or Vatican City. And then
rejoin the EU as a contributing member. In fact, I can almost
guarantee it, as over 60% of Londoners voted against Brexit.
