You really don't like it when examples of 'Southern bias' are presented
to you, do you?

Not to the extent that you do, no.

The divisive attitudes in this country annoy me, of which you bringing up
the N/S bias at seemingly every opportunity are effectively fueling.

I've mentioned it a grand total of *two* times in the last few weeks.
Hardly bringing it up at every opportunity.

Has it ever ocurred to you that these 'divisive attitudes' are caused
by southerners who by their own unthinking, arrogant ways
consider themselves to be the centre of the (British) universe?
No wonder northerners react against it!

You don't seriously want to start a Thatcher flamewar do you
