Former United Kingdom?
including Wales and a bit of Ireland, maybe
The Former United Kingdom and Miscellaneous Entities?
It can just be called England can't it.
Scot free Britain.
Disolved Kingdom.
Kingdom.
Better Britan (which is nice and aspriational, the tories would like it)
DaveLand.
LizLand, (both of those may be a bit time limited)
or something new like,
Beryl.
The British Consortium
Three-in-a-bed
British Kingdom, Principality and Provinces.
Or Commonwealth Union of Nations Triumvirate or **** for short 😉
EWNI Kingdom pronounced Uni. Obvious innit.
BTW why is it kingdom when we have a queen...can't we be a Queendom?
Could call it:
"May Contain Gingers" or MCG 😉
United Kingdom
Awesomeland.
[i]The Former United Kingdom and Miscellaneous Entities? [/i]
Lost on many...
FUKME?
Nectarpointsania
Well, more than likely the baddie
That is once they realise that Europe isn't going to let them waltz in, NATO have said no, they've got no embassies, haven't got a currency and nobody will lend to them 😀
Whatever the name the new minimalist flag, freed from all the ridiculous fussiness of the existing union flag, will look a lot better imo.

My daughter wrote to the SMP asking about the Union Jack and whether they would take the Blue
They wrote back with a very vague answer

Use this. as part of it. It's fine.
So if Scotland goes independent
For the average person in the UK, not a lot!

Use this one too

It's the flag of the Scot Free British nation.
IE the Union flag without the saltire, which presumably would be what would happen if Scotland separated itself from the rest of the UK.
Are you suggesting that the flag of Scot Free Britain would look different ?
Wouldn't it just be called Britain?
You think Scotland puts the Great in Great Britain ?

'Britain' is just the name of the landmass- the island that England, Wales and Scotland sits on, how the population on that piece of map group themselves or divide themselves doesn't matter, the piece of land is still called Britain. The 'Great' doesn't mean 'Fab' it just means Greater as in the larger amount - the island of Britain and its associated surrounding smaller islands (but thats not to confuse it with the 'British Isles' which is the whole archipelago and include Ireland and all Ireland's islands). So it would take the physical removal of those islands to take the 'Great' away from 'Great Britain'
Historically the Island of Britain was know as Greater Britain to distinguish it either from the island next door, (according to Ptelomy Ireland was 'Little Britain') and from Britanny, known at times as 'Lesser Britain'
The United Kingdom of Naysayers.
The Cumbrian Empire
The Not So United States of England.

Get the hell out of my country.
St Patrick's cross and St Georges cross and the welsh dragon. In red. In the Middle. And commensurably small.
On that basis, should it not be St Georges Cross, with a Dragon on one white panel, and a Red Hand on the other 😈
Pitchshifter dealt with this in 1999
(admittedly, in one of their worst songs)

Maybe some Irish/Welsh additions would be good for this nation you call Britain.
Well you're talking about completely redesigning the flag, I wasn't, I was suggesting what it would look like without the inclusion of the saltire.

Well thanks for that.

Finally an advantage of Scottish independence - no more worries about flying the flag the wrong way up (I'm assuming that unlike the flag in your photo, removing the saltire would allow them to make it symmetrical - otherwise it will be a whole lot worse!)
