Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland leaders unite for right to leave UK

The first ministers of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland met in Cardiff and signed a memorandum affirming the right of their nations to leave the United Kingdom. The leaders of the SNP, Plaid Cymru and Sinn Féin declared that Westminster's time is coming to an end and announced a historic deal to push for self-determination. The move marks an unprecedented joint effort by the three devolved nations to challenge London's authority. The memorandum does not itself grant independence but sets out a shared political demand for the right to decide their own constitutional future.
