    Just been on the news that 1 in 4 young people in the North are not in work, school or training.

    See, now do you southern bastards understand why we are all bitter and twisted up here.

    And yet - ( outside of the larger cities ), Thanet ( east Kent ), has the largest claimants of the state benefit system ( per 100 head of population )
    So, you see We are in it together - now stop your whining and go and find a dead cat for your breakfast.

    Well if any offspring of mine are hanging around with nothing to do, I'd at least expect them to come home with a flat screen TV and 20 pairs of Reeboks.

    Exactly. That's why us northerners are harder. Centuries of scrapping with (and beating) those mental Scots, whereas the southerners fought the poncey frogs and dagoes every hundred years or so.

    Even more now that UB40 are signing on.

    I am a 1 in 3.

    Statistical reminder of a world that doesn't care.

    The Scots would consider you a ' southerner ' - bet you don't like that.

    The North. Ruled by London.

    That's all that needs to be said.

    perhaps if they went to to school in the first place this issue could be sorted out.

    Cambridgeshire is full of Eastern Europeans who all came here to pick veg for a living. If standing in a field in all weathers picking veg is preferable to living in Poland then I'm pretty sure it is better than living in the North. Plenty of jobs going.
