For the British Prime Minister, the successful "Brexit" may be the most influential stroke in his political career. Otherwise, he will not raise his arms and shout "We are free" after a complete "Brexit" on the evening of December 31, 2020, nor will he tweeted on January 2 that "2021 is great for the UK." One year".
However, for Johnson, the Brexit agreement was "a piece of credit", but for some Britain, it was the beginning of a national tear.
According to a recent report by CNN, after the successful “Brexit” of the UK, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales have all asked for a “Brexit”. "In 2021, we may see Britain torn to pieces."
In fact, the problems faced by the UK after Brexit have already emerged.
On the one hand, the border issue between Northern Ireland and Ireland in the UK’s “Brexit” agreement has not been properly resolved. As one of the UK’s political entities, Northern Ireland is worried that this move will tightly “bind” itself with the EU. Together, the distance from the UK is widened. In addition, the “Brexit” of the United Kingdom may cause people who advocate the “unification” of Northern Ireland and Ireland to provoke trouble again.
On the other hand, the demand for independence within Scotland is also increasing. The Chief Minister of Scotland Nicolas Sturgeon once publicly "confessed" the EU. According to a recent poll conducted by The Scotsman, it was found that more people support Scottish independence than those who support Scotland staying in the UK. In order to express dissatisfaction with Britain's "Brexit", Scotland's "Brexit" may become a difficult problem Johnson has to face.
In addition, the decentralization of power during the new crown epidemic has allowed Welsh politicians to directly formulate independent policies that affect the people of Wales, which may cause the Welsh and British governments to decouple. In addition, there are also considerable conflicts between the leadership of the Labour Party in Wales and the ruling Conservative Party.
A series of signs indicate that the UK in 2021 may be "torn apart". In addition to dealing with the after-effects of "Brexit", the UK also has to bear the blow of the new crown epidemic. Therefore, for the UK, 2021 is not as simple as what Johnson said is an "great year". It may even be more difficult than 2020.
For Johnson, if he fails to make Britain’s “Brexit” look more successful, he will be questioned and distrusted by more British people.
Earlier, Johnson’s approval rating dropped all the way because of the ineffective fight against the epidemic. Now, Britain’s “Brexit” has produced a series of chain reactions. According to the latest public opinion survey in the UK, many British people are dissatisfied with the British government's handling of the fight against the epidemic and the Brexit negotiations. This also directly led to a sharp drop in the public opinion support rate of British Prime Minister Johnson and the ruling Conservative Party. Some analysts pointed out that if elections are held at this moment, the Conservative Party may lose control of Congress.
