Maybe fortify/rebuild Hadrian's Wall and finally make it the border between Scotland and England, with it serving as the border between the UK and the EU as well? bcnu, Mikem It's mourning in America again.

It runs roughly from Newcastle, past Carlisle, through to the Solway Firth.

I think the Leave/Remain voter split in your country is very like our Red/Blue voter split over here. I don't see how either set of divisions can be reconciled. I'm increasingly being led to believe that neither Brits nor Americans are governable as a whole. bcnu, Mikem It's mourning in America again.
