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.

Each country would inherit their part of the UK debt. It's highly likely their economies would be too bad for the EU to consider letting them join.

Why would those countries accept another countries debt? This type of thing was answered during the Scottish independence referendum, the same with currency etc.

Those 3 countries legally can't raise tax or take on debt, if you stuck in at school you'd know that.
