Scots To Seek Independence - part two

Again businessmen screw things up. Brexit was helped along by the EU's no border policy so British companies brought in cheap labour from eastern Europe. Many of these workers came over simply hoping to find work and it was bankrupting the healthcare system along with other public services. If all this causes the EU to break up they can blame themselves. Only an idiot would declare a common currency without a common financial system, it was doomed from the start.

The time span of the influx was also telling. The mass, especially Poles and Lithuanians, which came in a short space of time disoriented and destabilized the English and Welsh working class.
