Unionism in the United Kingdom

Unionism in the United Kingdom, also referred to as UK unionism or British unionism, is a political opinion. It is in support of keeping  England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland as one sovereign state, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The people who support the union are called "Unionists". Although not all unionists are nationalists,  UK or British unionism is associated with British nationalism. It says that the British are a nation. It is also for the Britons having a single culture.Guntram H. Herb, David H. Kaplan.
