Do you think it would be possible for the UK to pass another Act of Union in the 20th Century, like previous ones with Scotland and Ireland, to add another nation to the UK (presumably one of its colonies).
At this point I think Canada is out of the picture and New Zealand or Australia would probably be a stretch.
However I wonder if the political will was there in Britain (which admittidly it was not) if an Act of Union could've been possible with the West Indies, Mauritus, Malta or perhaps some Pacficic Islands.
Does anybody else have any candidates for nations that could've joined the UK or do you think the whole presmise is unfeasable?
