The idea of a 'Great' Britain began its death throes during the fifties, Theresa May & her right wing cohorts believe they can bring it back, but the 'great' has nothing to do with power or influence, it was the (not so) new name for the union of Scotland & England, originally it referred to the Britons/Welsh on one side of the channel to distinguish them from their compatriots in Brittany. It will be back to England & Wales after Scotland gains its independence. Bearing in mind that there's no such thing as real independence, only the political right to decide, we're all interdependent, yet the Tories are trying to push back the tide.
