If the UK's main wind thing (from the Gulf place) changes due to Global Warming...?

how will it affect our climate in the UK?? Right, I don't really make it sound scientific of clever or anything because I'm welsh and I've learned the work in welsh so I'm not sure how to translate it... :S SO! My question is how will the climate in the UK change if the main wind source (prifwynt in welsh) that's currently from the Gulf Stream place changes due to global warming? All I know so far is that IF it does change then the UK might get sea ice because it'll be too cold...?

Please try to answer me quickly and simply because I need to know this within the hour!! :S:S:S!!!

HELP!!! :)

    If the Gulf stream (North Atlantic Drift) moves, it will get much colder here. We'd get long freezing winters and we'd grow less food.

    It will cause another ice age because it the Gulf Stream will be blocked from all the deposits of fresh water into the ocean and cause all the warm currents to sink and be engorged by the colder currents.

    Quite simply the UK and a significant part of Europe will be buried in a sheet of ice, thus bringing in the next ice age.
