Indeed DS. (By the way )

As does Great Britain include the Channel Islands, even though they're not in the UK.

Hi GG!

Great Britain is simply the name of the largest of the British Isles, so doesn't include the Channel Islands.

Although I'm not sure how that gets around islands such as the Isle of Wight and the Outer Hebrides, which aren't included separately in the definition of the UK.

That is already used by Hong Kong.

We should be called Avalon obviously.

Prince Charles can be Arthur, Camila can be guinevere and the nominations are still open for Lancelot

Boris. The Bullingdon Club is the Order of the Round Table and Eton is Camelot.

Great Britain would still include Scotland, even if they were an independent nation.

. . . and Northern Ireland?

That's not a country, it's a province.

You'll be called England which most of the world think is the UK anyway, well the septics mostly.

You want a separation or hope for a yes vote? Then lobby for an English say in the referendum or hold your own and get yerselves tae **** and leave us alone.

The "Great" was lost a long time ago.

Not geographically. There are two Britains:

- Greater Britain (Great Britain)
- Lesser Britain (Brittany)

Or in French:

- La Grande Bretagne
- La Bretagne

The Scots can take Northern Ireland with them though, we never really got on all that well anyway.

The ones that want to remain part of UK are Scots too.
