Why is not being from Yorkshire such a profound benefit “because, if it’s outside Yorkshire, it’s not worth bloody visiting”, “alright”.

Not many people left who speak “Yorkshire” in the way all you Southerners think.


As someone from the North of England I find comments like that a bit rich coming from those living in the North Midlands rather than the North of England.

London to Leeds 195 miles
London to Berwick 339 miles

So Yorkshire is just over halfway from London to the Scottish border. However, in true Hear All, See All style, those North Midlands residents make big play about being from the North when we all know that it is all mouth and trousers.

And they aren't even scratching the surface of being from the North when you consider that there is another country which is part of the UK which goes for another 335 miles past Berwick (before you start counting the offshore islands).

That's not a chip, it's a black pudding!



And to add a correction:

The Midlands or "Border Region" starts at Hemel Hempstead, St Albans, Hatfield and the North begins at Milton Keynes.

Haha smile, whatever it is he's deffo got it on his shoulder with regards to Yorkshire folk.

I am not sure there is a distnct demarcation of what constitutes North and South. Like many issues there is no hard and fast rule. From a government statistics point of view they class Yorkshire as the start of the North of England. I have never seen or heard any group of people ever suggest Yorkshire isn't in the North though as even two thousand years ago it was referred to as the North by the north celts.
