Does it? As a welsh person it hurts me to say that Wales was never a kingdom in the United Kingdom as its was under English rule for a long time before that came about. You could I guess still use the name, but its weird.
I would love to see England get a devolved government, with all governments getting equal power and the UK government overseeing defense, etc. Sort of like a Federal government.
- walthamstow 4y agoIf we do federalism we would need to break England down quite a bit. Yours, a Londoner. (We have less political power than Scotland, which is half our population. Wales is even smaller)
- b800h 4y agoWe have a wonderful opportunity to reestablish some of the old kingdoms in England as states in a federal United Kingdom. Duchies of Mercia, Wessex, Northumbria, Lancaster, London, Yorkshire and so on (as well as Scotland and Wales) with both elected parliaments and local constitutional nobles would be a brilliant way of making things more equal, driving local development, revitalising the monarchy and maintaining tradition.
