I don't need to predict, I'm from 2553, the 22nd century is my history.

Russia continues to stoke the second Cold War by building bigger and 'more powerful' weapons (they don't get used) which causes a mass emigration from Northern to Southern Hemispheres; this in turn causes a hostility between Australia, New Zealand, South Africa etc against 'Britain', Europe and America.

The Commonwealth breaks down with only a few small countries (and Canada) staying with England in the slimmed down version.

America sends another manned mission to the moon and ten years later forms a small colony of scientists. England, not to be outdone sends Dr. Walker (He hasn't actually been born yet, give it another .... 27 years) who goes on to perfect artificial gravity and as such begins a new renaissance for English greatness. Suddenly, being English is cool again and a new fad for speaking with English accents sprouts up world wide. You hear Geordies in Georgia ..... Scouses in San Francisco and Brummies in .. Birmingham (Alabama).

Because of the increased interest in all things English, the economy has a huge boost because of all the virtual (and still ocassionally actual) tourism and the government calls an amnesty on all personal debts, wiping out all credit card, mortgage and loans, instantly making most English people a lot more wealthy.

Devolution for the Scots and Welsh mean that they don't qualify and although there are some protests, they have to admit that since the United Kingdom broke up, being 'British' doesn't have the same weight as it did in the past.

As for Wales. They have been holding their own since devolution with emphasis on the language and tourism. Scotland aren't doing badly either but their emphasis is on industry and history.

Northern Ireland has long since united with Southern Ireland and therefore just see the other three countries of the United Kingdom as close foreign neighbour with a common language and history.

Very much the same as today except the Queen will be 100% Bionic and will be able to leap over London Tower in a single bound. Her dress will be weighted at the bottom so as not to reveal the royal ...truth...when making these jumps.

It won't exist. If demographic projections in Northern Ireland play out then a Nationalist majority will opt out and a United (albeit heavily secular and federal) Ireland will emerge. This would be the impetus for Scotland to vote for sovereignty for their own parliament within the E.U. and and Britain will split into three states.

Well it won't be British! I don't have any problems with race, colour or creed but this is Britain and we have lost many traditions due to not wanting to upset newcomers... People who come to Britain should accept our culture and live by it... Not try and change it to how they lived but easier... If they don't like it they should either leave or adapt.
