The greedy Southerners siphon up all the cash to provide themselves with everything they need.
Who has a tunnel to Europe ?
Who has a high speed rail link to same ?
Where is the highest density of motorways ?
Who has "The dome" ?
Who has the Olympics ?
Who keeps all the money ?
dunx
P.S. The North would be better off without the burden of the South to finance ?

Scum rises to the top
God knows why I'm sticking my beak in.
I'm from Manchester (I'm a Blue)
Lived Darn Sarf for 20+ years
Never go to the pub for a pint and a game of pool with the "Lads" - It's not something that tends to happen round here - I miss it tbh.
I think it helps having "Northern" Charm working amongst Southern sorts.

In the North we have enough sense in not wanting to live in the South with its stupid inflated prices on almost everything.
I lived in London for 2 years, everyone races round like headless chickens, bumper to bumper traffic for miles, give me the slower pace of life in the North every time where you also get a lot more for your money.

Oh dear! Yet another example of northern ignorance.
We don't use the full phrase. We would say;
I am going up the apples for a tom.

I liked this bit:
"Every Edinburgh constituency was placed in the top third for educational achievement. Every constituency in Glasgow was below the British average".
