Well they (the English people as a whole) don't care because their empire has collapsed and there is no chance of getting it back so they have adapted.
On the whole the English people are a better class of sheep than that of most other nations, perfect proof is their meek acceptance of the police -nanny state that has formed there ever more quickly since the 70s.
There are a small minority of people who object and I would imagine it was an equally small number who objected to empire in the 19th century.
Much of the English permanent govt, military and establishment on the other hand has been gripping as hard as they can on the North.
The people who consider themselves Brits in the North also care a great deal.
