What Britain would look like if Yorkshire took charge

Quote
Let’s face it, it’s about bloody time.

With the EU referendum fallout expanding with every passing hour, talk of Scotland going independent and the Shakespearean farce unfolding at the HQ of both major parties, it’s high time we rolled up our sleeves and sorted this mess out.

Thanks us later, Britain. Let’s take a look at a few of the things that will change around here when Yorkshire get the keys to Number 10.


Sean Bean would be PM

Theresa May? Michael Gove? Do me a favour. The Brexit trade negotiation table is going to be a tough old slog, and we need someone up to the task, gruff of voice and hard as nails.

Step forward Mr Sean Bean. Sheffield’s favourite son knows all about leadership and getting the better of enemies from a foreign field. Get him in the hot seat. By the time he’s done, Angela Merkel will be leaving the EU herself begging to join the UK.




There would be a wall around Lancashire

In true Trump style, it’s only right that we stop Lancastrians from mixing with the rest of the world by building a twenty-foot wall around its border.

And yes, Prime Minister Bean would ensure they paid for it. They would become their own state entirely, trading only in hotpots and the rights to Coronation Street.



There would be no tax on real ale

No need. £1 a pint, up the tax on lager for those soft southern shandy drinkers.

..or gravy



Southerners would be taught to speak correctly

Think of it as traditional elocution in reverse. Danny Dyer would be speaking in perfect Yorkshire within weeks.
