The UK is on the brink of Civil War

Nah.... Honestly the British might take to the streets protesting and venting frustration at mainstream politicians, but they don't have the appetite for anything close to a civil war. It's mostly a lot of hot air and their last actual civil war was nearly 400 years ago.

Northern Ireland, however, is a different story. They operate on a completely different historical wavelength, with a deeply ingrained memory of conflict and sectarian tension woven right into their cultural DNA.....

A civil war requires a fractured military, a collapse of government institutions, and a populace armed for revolution. The UK has none of those. Instead, what will happen is a period of intense, exhausting civil unrest loud, angry, and messy, but fundamentally contained within the existing political system.


Western nations have an incredible amount of built-in institutional armour. They can absorb massive amounts of anger, fire, and political chaos without the core machinery of the state ever breaking.
