Do you think the United Kingdom should stop being called the United Kingdom?

Not sure where I stand on this one, I was born and raised in the UK, rarely do we refer to it with its full form of United Kingdom. I don't know that I would even call it "Great" Britain as there really isn't much great about it these days! I guess it could be called "Come here seeking asylum and you'll get free housing for the rest of your lives depriving those who work their arses off and pay taxes their whole lives from getting their due pensions!" LOL Sorry to be so mean but that's how many people see it these days...

Maybe we should call it the Divided Queendom, after all we aren't united anymore and we haven't had a king for a while. Or maybe we should just call it the next American state or the bit of Europe that's not attached and the Europeans want to rule.

Well, I would be happy to just have seperate countries of England, Wales, Northern Ireland, Scotland. I'm English, not British or UK-ish. We're hardly united as you say so it makes no sense to call it the United Kingdom although I'm sure there are people who would argue by saying we are united in some way or another. The only way I can see is that we are physically connected (except for N.I.) and also that Wales and Scotland don't have parliament's entirely seperate from England. But saying that, Scotland want to devolve from England and become completely independant and Wales, as far as I know, are mostly indifferent. I personally don't mind whether it's called the UK or whatever but I do wish people would refer to each constituent country as a country and to each constituent nationality independantly because I find the phrase Brit offensive.

I think it should be left the United Kingdom .Just like the United States,we all have our own little sub groverments but are all still part of the larger whole.It just wouldn't feel or sound right to change it.;-)
