Definitely not this. However, a union with Kent might be decent. We'd be like Czechoslovakia. The battle for Tunbridge Wells would at last be put to rest and the Medway towns would be a magnet for every chav in the the union, meaning that Crawley could finally take it's place as a solid proud blue-collar town without the unpleasant chavs ruining it.

The capital of the union would obviously be Brighton, and the new cricket team would beat England with ease time and time again.

1. Brighton
2. Crawley
3. Eastboune Borough
4. Whitehawk
5. Bognor Regis
6. Lewes
7. Peacehaven
8. Hastings Utd
9. Burgess Hill
10. Worthing
11. Horsham
12. Three Bridges

The championship would be what is now county league 1

Would we be in the EU and would we be allowed monetary union with the rest of the UK? Sounds familiar?

Also, we'll have to frack as that might be our only natural resource.
