Exactly. Government by bullshit PR slogans. Means nowt.

Also, once the Red Wall goes back to being red again, they can stop pretending they give a shit.

And quite rightly, ultimately the "Northern Powerhouse" contributes two parts of fuck all to the county, so it should be left, we need to concentrate on the places that generate the cash. Sad, but true.

Agreed, but it's not and never will be

But it can be. There is an economic benefit also to make other cities thrive and receive the investment to continue that benefit.

It is no good having a city like Newcastle, Sheffield or Liverpool remain stagnant or decline as all it does is dilute the net gain.

Yes but they are not as good as they could be away from the city centre by a fucking long shot. You could say the same for all cities of course but you don't get anywhere near the investment in cities such as those I mentioned.

To be frank, considering the size of the Birmingham metropolitan area they are probably even worse, and the place is pretty grim.

Lets have a GE.

See how much the public trust the new leader, whoever it is.

Everything's changed. Everything is shit. Let's start from scratch. Put all the cunts toe to toe.

Works for me.

Yep. 

Zico for PM 

Battlenips decides every decision. Every debate has every eventuality randomly assigned 1-100 on the grid. 

Everyone votes where they think the nips are and then we go with whatever is under them no matter whether it's as mental as free cocaine for all pensioners or sending boat folk back to Rwanda.

Chicken and egg scenario. Starve the SE of funding do you really think it'd be the economic hothouse it is?

Moving the BBC and ITV to Salford has been decent for the area immediately around the quays. But walk ten minutes further and you can still get stabbed by a teenager on a BMX if that’s your thing.

Something for everyone up north.

Along with Gavin Williamson, thicker than pig shit that mon.

He's the man who told an interviewer on A - Level results day he couldn't remember what his results were.

That's because they were 2 E's the thick fucker.

That's even more the case in London. You can be a billionaire and have some shithole estate on your doorstep.
