Independence in the UK is heading for a constitutional crisis
Last week’s UK local and national election results revealed a country that was radically, and perhaps irreparably, divided.
Labor retained power in Wales; Boris Johnson’s Conservatives achieved tremendous victories throughout England; and in Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon, the Scottish National Independentist Party (SNP), won a fourth term in office.
