Yes I know but what will happen if Scotland and Northern Ireland want to stay in the EU ? It will a perfect occasion to ask for a new referendum. 

However current polls suggest Scotland would still vote to remain in the UK in the event of a Brexit.

Not got anything on Northern Ireland. But using "it'll break up the Union", while not an impossibility, not anywhere near as certain as some are trying to make it.

But I find this picture fun. Especially if you factor the SNPs logic into it all.

I don't think that Scotland really wants to leave UK just after the Brexit but that will probably change if the UK becomes less and less important in the international stage in the next 15 years. It will also depends on the reaction of the EU towards UK after the Brexit.
