Yeah, that whole correlation/causation/coincidence thing is just another educated elitist hoax.

What the Wales+England union flag might look like several years down the line
And no, being Welsh-American with relatives still living over there, I donāt ever see a Wales-England split, Plaid Cymru, not withstanding, for reasons going back to the House of Tudor.

It must be tough for the banned media to avoid the temptation simply to stop covering Trump entirely. āWeāve been banned, so we canāt reliably report any news about this personā - then never mention his name again.

No. Iāll check it out. Sounds like it deals with the devastation caused by the coal mining industry.
āThe presumptive Republican presidential nominee later told reporters that the stock marketās fall on Friday was due to Wall Streetās worries about President Barack Obamaās economic policies and the U.S. debt.ā And the reporters duly noted this as one side of an argument which would need to be ārailed againstā by someone from āthe other side.ā Enablers, all of them.

The Trilogy is called the Mortymer Trilogy, and itās Rape of the Fair Country, Hosts of Rebecca and Song of the Earth and yes itās about coal mining in Wales and about politics.
Alexander Cordell. Itās one of those things I picked one time in a used book store because it looked interesting and it turned out to be extremely good, especially if you have interest in Wales.

Scotland isnāt reacting on the petition because they are now going back to the thought of their own independence. One of the reasons they voted to stay a couple of years ago was because they wanted to stay in the EU ā independence at that time would have meant 5+ years to apply for membership as a separate country, etc.
Now they are trying to leverage their existing membership as part of the UK as a way to both go independent and stay EU. The split might go through the next time around. That would BTW mean the end of both UK and Great Britain, because Scotland is part of both of those designations.
Northern Ireland is a bit of a different case (hence somewhat more interest in the petition) because, although they could reunite with the Republic of Ireland, and thereby stay in the EU (the Republic also has the Euro as its currency), the politics there are more difficult.
According to an MP on the House of Commons Select Committtee for petitions, they are going to discuss this petition already on Tuesday.
Hold onto your seats, this should get interesting!
