Why are many from the SE so hung up on cultural stereotypes, yet ignorant of Geographical boudaries within the UK.
Birmingham takes an hour by train to London. East Kent takes 1hr 30 mins
Yet southerners would assume Kent and London are similar yet the midlands is closer by train and assumed to be different.
Southerners also assume all of "The North" (wrongfully including the midlands) is close together and homogenous.
I live in the NW and via road I can get to Buckinghamshire quicker than say Newcastle. The area I live more resembles Surrey than Tyneside, but assumptions of the geogrphically illiterate are otherwise.
I never expected the South to be full of Pearly Kings and Queens eating Jellied eels as stereotypes would lead me to believe. In my experience
hetrogeneity in the south is just as strong as it is between many areas of "The North" and likewise within "The North"
I waste my breath
oooooo touchy touchy
Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyone
