For England. Not for Ireland, Scotland or Wales. They'll immediately start the process to rejoin the EU. Happy days ahead. You'll always have London, they'll pay the bills for the rest of the country.

Where are you gonna hold all the subs or train your pilots and Navy? England has not had an armed force since before 1707. Last time I checked it was called the British army.

All debts were raised in London and England currently owns over £1 trillion in debt by your logic.
So both Scotland and Wales are going to walk away debt free.

Ireland gave the United Kingdom £1 when it left. We will generously give you two.

Reparations to both countries for 200 years of exploitation to be fair.
