The nationalists won in Scotland and Northern Ireland, and the future of the United Kingdom is in doubt

The resounding victory of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson in the elections does not only predict the future of the Barakite crisis, but also the victory of English, Scottish and Northern Irish nationalism - one that could lead to the disintegration of the United Kingdom.

Although the election results will likely allow Johnson to retire from the EU as early as next month, the strengthening of the Scottish National Party (SNP) and the retention of the Irish Nationalist Party may result in the disintegration of the Union that has been beating England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland for centuries.

While the Conservatives pushed the Labor party aside in large parts of the British Isle, the party leaders
The national orientation in Scotland and Northern Ireland outweighed their rivals, who saw Johnson's victory as an opening for the United Kingdom's disintegration.

Scottish nationalists have taken 48 seats out of 59 parliamentary seats in Scotland, while in Northern Ireland itself, union supporters with Ireland who are not part of the United Kingdom have won more seats than those wishing to remain part of the UK - for the first time since the dividing divide between the Northern and the Irish Republic.

Throughout the election campaign, Johnson said he was committed to unification between kingdom states, and denied allegations that his Barcasit agreement would create an economic barrier between Northern Ireland and the British Isle. "At this point, it appears that a government led by the Conservative Party not only has a mandate to carry the Barcasit, but also to consolidate the kingdom and move forward," Johnson said after winning.

On the other hand, the Prime Minister's rivals claimed that in his promise to "end the Barracks process" Johnson appealed to English nationalists, at the expense of the interests of Scotland and Northern Ireland which contributed significantly to his success.

Joe Swinson, chairman of the Liberal Democratic Party who lost its seats to the Scottish National Parliament in Sockland, stung the prime minister on the grounds that the election results were a victory for nationalists. "Tonight we saw Boris Johnson achieve a majority, and clearly this is good news for the party The Scottish National, "he said," has some who will celebrate the wave of nationalism on both sides of the border.

SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon said the election results constitute a clear mandate for another referendum on Scotland's independence. England's political partner for 300 years voted against seceding from the kingdom at 55% versus 45% in 2014, and in the 2016 referendum on the Barakzite agreement the Scots supported the UK's stay in the EU. The Scottish National Party leader now says that withdrawing from the union means taking another step towards Scotland's independence.

One of the arguments for Scottish independence supporters from the kingdom is the desire to remain part of the EU, even in the London clean-up situation. "Boris Johnson may have the mandate to exclude England from the EU. He does not have the mandate to exclude Scotland from the EU. Scotland must have control over itself in the future," Sturgeon said.

The 1973 referendum on the separation of Northern Ireland from Britain

Northern Ireland has also voted against withdrawing from the EU in the referendum in the United Kingdom, and parties opposing the Barracit won the first seats in the province for the first time. Nationalists said the election results paved the way for a vote on whether Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic should unite.

Marie Lou Macdonald, leader of Shane Payne, the Irish nationalist party advocating for one independent and united Irish state, detached from British rule, said that the north was moving towards a referendum, similar to the 1973 move on the separation of Northern Ireland from Britain. "I can't give a set date yet, but we have to prepare for that," said McDonald, whose party has retained its seven seats.
