The British Civil War, also referred to as the Second British Civil War following the 17th century Wars of the Three Kingdoms, was a multi-sided civil war in the United Kingdom fought primarily between the Boris Johnson-led HM Government, the Jeremy Corbyn-led United Opposition, separatists and other domestic forces.
Boris Johnson, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, was observed as shifting further to the right and faced multiple scandals and government crisis. These crisis provoked a left-wing uprising in support of Labour Party leader and leader of the opposition Jeremy Corbyn under the "United Opposition". This marked the beginning of the armed conflict with separatists and other domestic forces soon entering the conflict.
The conflict ended with the 2024 New Year's ceasefire agreement and resulted in a 2024 constitutional convention. Referenda were held in the aftermath: Scotland voted first for independence and second to not retain the monarchy, Northern Ireland voted for Irish reunification, Wales voted to remain within the union, Cornwall voted to become a country within the union, and finally England, Wales and Cornwall voted to approve a new codified federalist constitution.
