The UK's constitutional arrangements need a thorough going over to finish off properly what Labour started with devolved assemblies. Those could have been a natural fit with an evolved UK as part of EU.
I go back to Timothy Snyder's comments from 2018 on the EU, Brexit and "sovereignty". The UK has *never* been a nation state, and everyone forgets that. Through Brexit we left an organisation that allowed smaller nations a large degree of "sovereignty", with the myth that we were going *back* to something.
