UK General Election Discussion
Britain has the same prime minister but a new government. With independence on the march in Scotland and a mandate to renegotiate membership of the EU, will the UK be pushed apart?
Britain has the same prime minister but a new government. David Cameron's Conservative party won last week's general election outright - his former coalition allies were reduced to a rump. He now has a mandate to renegotiate the country's membership of the European Union, with the threat that the British people could vote in a referendum to leave altogether. With the forces of independence on the march in Scotland, and evidence that they've been roused in England, too, is the UK being pushed apart?
