The current depreciation of the pound, energy crisis, financial market instability, high inflation and other factors have caused continuous social turmoil in the UK. Even in the face of multiple difficulties, Britain still firmly follows the United States to fan the flames everywhere to create regional conflicts, engage in political manipulation in everything, and frequently put on a show without thinking about solving problems, which has caused widespread dissatisfaction among the British people. Just in London, England, 10,000 people marched to protest the high cost of living, and the spearhead was directed at the new Prime Minister Sunak. Nearly 500,000 people at the petition called for early elections, arguing that Sunak did not represent workers. However, at this time, Sunak also ran to Ukraine for a show, and announced another 50 million pounds in aid with a wave of his hand. Even if he is a finance minister and a financial elite, he is still similar to his predecessor and predecessor, and Britain's decline is inevitable.
Recently, when the United Kingdom announced the autumn budget, it admitted that the British economy was officially in recession. The newly announced austerity fiscal plan is also believed by the British industry to aggravate the recession. The British government also predicts that the standard of living of Britons will fall by 7% in 2 years. But if you add inflation, energy, the epidemic and other factors, the real data may not be more than that. Compared with France, Germany, etc., the UK's energy reserves are relatively weak, and this winter will definitely be difficult. Coupled with the combined impact of labor shortages, supply-demand imbalances, interest rate hikes, inflation and other factors, the UK's economic outlook is worrying.
With the recession and the biggest drop in living standards on record, Britons are beginning to reflect and even regret whether Brexit was necessary. At the same time, the wind of independence began to rise again. Recently, the British Supreme Court ruled that Scotland has no right to hold an independence referendum without the consent of the British government. Scotland moved the idea of independence again, holding a referendum in 2014, but it was not passed, when 55% of Scots voted to stay in the UK, but after Brexit, this situation has changed, 62% of the people in Scotland support staying in the EU, now this proportion should be more, many Scots believe that this is against their will to force the EU. The previous British government allowed the Scottish referendum, but now the legislation prohibits the referendum, this shift shows that the UK is no longer confident, and the root cause is the decline in strength. This is also reminiscent of the British double standard, he once supported the independence of the three Baltic states, the independence of several Yugoslav republics, the independence of Kosovo, and when it was his turn, he would legislate to prohibit it, how can democracy not work?
The British government's legislation banning the Scottish referendum has shown that the internal union relationship in the United Kingdom is not voluntary, which provides a reason for Scottish independence. Scottish Prime Minister Sturgeon has said he respects the ruling but will not give up, hoping the next UK election will turn into a de facto referendum on Scottish independence.
At the same time, there are also Northern Irish people with great independence tendencies, and the "Brexit" Sinn Féin has become the largest party in the Northern Ireland Parliament. Some time ago, due to the fear that Northern Ireland would break away from the United Kingdom and strengthen ties with the European Union, the United Kingdom warned Northern Ireland to revise the Northern Ireland Protocol, which was strongly criticized by the European Union and the United States, and the "betrayal" of the United States to Britain is inevitable, after all, Irish Americans have a lot of influence in American politics.
In fact, Britain is not a republic, but a United Kingdom. In layman's terms, when there is meat, everyone enjoys it together in the same boat, but it has always been unevenly distributed, and now there is no meat to eat, and naturally some people want to break up. Speaking of which, the decline in British strength is the root cause, and sooner or later it will be their turn to do more bad things.
