Ok, I think I understand now... Is this like the way France and Spain are really only 1 country but with two political administrations.

You are right it is not Rugby; Ireland is the anomaly. 2 distinct countries, having 1 team just doesn't make any sense.

what absolute nonsense. Rugby is the anomaly here, because it is based on the whole island. There is no Great British team, or North American team, or South American, nor Iberian or European team, or anything else for that matter.

Why would FIFA tell the remiaiing UK teams to reduce themselves to one? Where is your logic? Scotland is independent already because it has its own team as recognised by FIFA, so if they ceased to be part of the UK it would make absolutely no difference, they wouldn't have to make a new football team to do it

Surely, when the Queen dies Charles will automatically become King unless he pre-abdicates? It is a purely hereditary system, so the next King has to be Charles. The current Monarch cannot simply choose who will be next.

I think they all do, don't they? Certainly when I was going to school if you went on to do A levels, irrespective of the subjects, you had to have at least English and maths GCSE at grade C or above. The rational I understood was that you couldn't go to University without them.
