British States

[Emsworth]

Hey Al,

Is Ireland the entire emerald isle or split into Eire and Ulster? For this exercise it might be wise to remain divided to get four Senate seat instead of two!

It'll remain partitioned as O'Neill wouldn't want to upset his base.

What would you do with County Cavan, County Donegal and County Monaghan? They are a part of both Eire and Ulster, but not of Northern Ireland.

Note also that Ireland could be split into the four traditional provinces, Connacht, Munster, Ulster and Leinster. England, unfortunately, does not have such convenient divisions. The only ones that come to mind are based on the Church of England's Provinces, Canterbury (Midlands and South of the Midlands) and York (North of the Midlands).

And the state of England will have like twice the EVs of California. Now that's power!

But only two Senators...

Scotland: Alec Douglas-Hume, R*

Isn't that Home?

Thats a good sketch. However where is Powell going to give his speech as there is no UK Parliament in this TL. He could give it in a state legislature I guess

He could give it at a rally in Brixton... or the Mercia state legislature.

If Powell is making a political speech, then the rally at Brixton seems a more likely location than the chamber of a legislature.

Might I ask if each Australian state would be an American one? Also, what would be done with the Northern Territory, the ACT and the British Crown Dependencies and Overseas Territories?
