A cross-party committee is to
propose the UK become a federation of four nations (England, Wales, Scotland
and Northern Ireland). The committee believes such an arrangement would avoid
the country's disintegration after the Brexit vote was split, with England and
Wales voting to leave the EU and voters in Scotland and Ireland (and London)
voting to stay. Scotland has already said it now wants a second referendum on
independence.
The Constitution Reform Group is led by former minister Lord
Salisbury, with former Lib Dem leader Menzies Campbell, former Labour secretary
for NI and Wales Peter Hain, former Commons secretary Lord Lisvane and ex-NI
Unionist MP David Burnside.
