The whole thing could've been filed away under lessons learned we'll be better and starmer completely hosed the point of the report and made it headlines

Like is the animus so raw that if someone in the South does something someone in the North would choose to do the opposite out of spite?

You're saying that Brexit voters in the North have such an intense hatred of southerners that they'd vote for Brexit (which will gently caress them over) and then vote for the Tories in a General Election (who have historically hosed them over) just to spite people in London? Intense, dude

I'm not sure "you can't think brexit is a bad idea and campaign to overturn it because it will annoy the idiot northerners" is necessarily a good defence of the north.

The North is weird because Mablethorpe (53.3409° N, 0.2611° E) is definitely in the Midlands, but Northwich (53.2587° N, 2.5181° W) is definitely in the North. In conclusion, the Earth cannot be flat, but is an angled wedge.

Jose posted:I'm saying calling northerners Tories and believing London to be socialist is stupid as gently caress I mean, it's literally true though? London afaik is pretty consistently more left wing than most of the country. The north is full of tories because it's full of old farts and farmers. Like I'm ashamed of my home but I can't pretend it's not full of shitheads.

Everything below 54 degrees is southern.
