Do you consider Scottish people Northerners?

The Scottish themselves would beg to differ.
Anything above the M25 is Northern

What so people from Wolverhampton, Walsall, Stoke, Nottingham, Derby are northerners?


That's the way I look at it! I know we're midlands, but it helps me to look at it in a north-south divide way really :smile:
No I don't, they are scottish not northerners
No. It's a different country:confused:
As a Scot, I've always thought 'northerners' were English and that they'd be from Newcastle and Berrick and such like.

Why do you need to look at it in terms of a north/south divide though? You're ignoring an entire region.

We (and they) are Midlanders.

As a Scot -despite the fact when I go 'up North' people think I'm English because of my lack of an accent- I always categorise northerners as those living in Manchester right up to the border?
