Part of me wants it to happen, just so we can turn round and laugh at the delusion of it all. But I have quite a few friends from up there and I wouldn't want to put them through it, I only know of one that says he wants independence - doubt he really means it though.
Another reason would be to hopefully quell the Welsh/Cornish from wanting unworkable independence.
Now if we could just annex off Norfolk . . .
