North V South Divide


trans

Recommended Posts

although used in a slightly different context there is a graphic in the times today regarding the north/south divide in terms of labour MPs - it is in the context of, when labour talks about the north/south divide, it alienates those in the south who think that labour doesn't represent them

 

it is based on research done by Sheffield University and draws a line broadly diagonally from Grimsby down to Bristol - it shows that, north of this line, labour has 210 MPs, south of the line labour has only 48 MPs - 38 of which are in London

 

to that extent there is obviously a north/south divide

I wonder how many MPs living and working in the capital actually have any experience of what life is like in the North?

Or outside London for that matter. They are just a bunch of socipaths, don't they say that those who want power the most are the ones least suitable?

The north south divide only exists in the stupid northerners head which is perfectly illustrated on the previous posts

 

No, it also exists in this stupid man's head as well

And his ignorance is matched by his venality and bigotry.
