Could Brexit result in Britain becoming a republic?

If aliens invade Earth, they will target the largest political entities first, such as the European Union. If Britain is outside of the EU when this occurs, they will simply view us as a few Islands of no significance or threat, and will hopefully leave us alone. Therefore, we must leave the EU.

What? My baseless scenario is just as valid as your baseless scenario.

Brexit could be the end for the Royal family.

So the UK leaves the EU,

1) Scotland demands independence so they can get back in the EU and they win the referendum. Scotland will become a republic and the queen will have to vacate her Scottish palaces.

2) Economic turmoil post Brexit and massive recession makes Wales decide they'd be better back in the EU so Wales leaves. Wales becomes a republic and the EU helps them rebuild their steel industry and economy. That means the prince of Wales no longer has that role and loses his status of Prince and can't become King neither can William and Harry.

The royal will only have England left to rule over.

3) Considering that the royal family is of German, Dutch and Greek origin then leaving the EU will disconnect them from their countries of Origin.

4) Economic turmoil in England could lead to several things:

a) The rise of communism that could demand a referendum on the royal family that we can't afford to keep.

b) Northern regions of England demand to unify with the Republic of Scotland. While the West Country and midlands demands unification with the Republic of Wales. That only leaves the South East of England left that is all that could remain of England.

c) Other royal families in Denmark, Spain, Holland etc demand that the queen abdicates for leaving the EU.

d) Since the end of WW2 the EU has thought against the spread of communism. Without the EU communism could grow in Britain and result in abolition of the Royal family.

So we see how Brexit can open a Pandora's box of problems.

If you love Britain then don't let Bre 'it become Break 'it !

Love Britain love the EU!

Firstly the likelihood of an alien invasion is very slim.

Second do you really want us to become a few Islands of no significance? Just because of the rare chance of alien invasion. If we are so insignificant with nearly 80 million people who will trade with us? We will become an insignificant overpopulated third world country. No trade means no jobs, that means less tax which means no public services like no welfare or NHS.

Quite absurd really

1) There is no indication that an independent Scotland would be a republic, on the contrary the SNP has endorsed the monarchy several times.

2) Wales has no mandate to leave.

3) The royal family might have European ancestry but its loyalty to is to its homeland, which is Britain.

4) Assuming an imminent economic collapse (which is absurd given that preparations will be made years in advance)
a) Even the Great Depression did not lead to communism, it's a fringe movement at best.
b) Northern counties have no desire to join Scotland
c) No foreign royal family would risk a political scandal, it would actually strengthen the monarchy.
d) Communism has never gained traction in England, it has in Germany and Spain though.

As a remain supporter this is a desperate argument.

Still not convinced? What about the rise in earnings that Lord Rose, Chairman of the 'Britiain Stronger in Europe' campaign had admitted and YET said high wages is not necessarily a good thing O_o HOW is not having higher wages and being the difference between needing welfare NOT a good thing - which we can obtain in a Brexit

: It is hard to know, because there would be such an array of different economic consequences if that happened. In that scenario where we ended free movement, we would also lose access to the single market. Any economist, at that stage, would perhaps have an even harder job than working out the benefits of our membership now, of working out what precisely had caused the changes in economic fundamentals.

I always find it amazing how the Express can perform miracles of spin, and even more astounding that someone can present it as some kind of impartial source. Here's what followed on from Lord Rose's comment then:

So yes, labour costs would rise, but the economic dislocation of Brexit has the potential to be so considerable that any small benefit from that could be lost in the greater economic adjustments that would be happening. Stands to reason.
