THE UNITED Kingdom could be torn apart after a shock poll today revealed support for a united Ireland is surging in Northern Ireland - with Brexit cited as a major cause for the swing.
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland faces an uncertain future with a growing number of Northern Irish citizens supporting reunification with the Republic.
The possibility of a referendum on the creation of a united Ireland is permitted by the Good Friday Agreement, with the UK government agreeing to a vote if public support indicates it could pass.
And Northern Irish citizens increasingly appear to support leaving the UK to form a united Ireland, according to a new poll released today which was commissioned by the BBC.
The Lucid Talk poll reveals 42.1 percent of those surveyed would vote to join the Republic in a unified Ireland, just three points - the margin of error - behind those who want to remain in the UK. The remainder were undecided.
And those aged under 45 showed an even higher level of support for a united Ireland. Those aged 18-45 were 49 percent in favour of a united Ireland, 38 percent in favour of remaining in the UK and 13 percent undecided.
