    But look at the cultural differences, not only does London have a completely different culture from Wessex, they also don't speak the same language as they do in Manchester. London could take back control of its money by parting from the rest of the annoying bunch. Manchester could then raise the taxes for the rich to benefit its working class, especially because there'd be no rich people left to complain. Wessex could just bask in its nationalist glory without having to share it with others and so on.
    It's idiots like those in Cornwall and Sunderland who deserve to be cut off. I've already cited Cornwall's gall at voting out and demanding that Westminster make up the shortfall resulting from discontinued EU subsidies. Workers at a car plant in Sunderland have also proudly voted out then complained when the company hinted that it may move its operations continent-side as a result of likely subsequent different trade conditions.

    IA is right, socialism is dead. There is no reason for those who make money to subsidise those who don't. Let the west and north make of life what they will, with the profitable south east breaking off.
