Brexit and the north
Brexit and the north
With all this uncertainty over Brexit We in the north need to stick together. With this in mind I propose we form a super county by merging Yorkshire and Lancashire. Safety in numbers and all that.
The name of this county could be a merger of the two county names. we would take York from Yorkshire and shire from Lancashire, the name of the new county YORKSHIRE.

Re: Brexit and the north

Re: Brexit and the north
I don't consider either Lancashire or Yorkshire to be in the North, although they are north of Watford so southerners will consider that they are.
