Subject: RE: BS: Theresa May - latest message (Brexit)
Thanks for the correction Nigel internationally and for treaty purposes the full title of the country is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It became so in 1922. If Gallus Moll lives in Scotland then the part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland that she lives in is Great Britain. As sovereign states both England and Scotland, while retaining their declared state religions and separate codes of law ceased to be independent states when they became one single state, the United Kingdom of Great Britain, in 1707.

"Theresa May, chose to withhold important adverse information about Trident just before a vote in the Commons to renew it"

There has been no Commons vote to renew Trident - the vote in the Commons IIRC was all about a decision to build four new Submarines in order that we can continue having our current nuclear deterrent capability until 2040 - it had nothing whatsoever to do with a new missile system.
