Actually it doesn't. Capital expenditure in London far outstrips the tax it pays. The UK subsidises London.

Depends on how you count it, and what the tax expenditure you look at. Also London generates most of the countries business from what I understand. Very few major companies would base themselves in Yorkshire, but they would happily in London.

We have more than enough industry to self support. We have farming too. Our tax flows out of Yorkshire and in to England. We have 2 or 3 massive power stations. North sea oil and gas comes in via us. We could sell you lot electric. You need us far more than we need you. Sorry to burst your bubble

You could sell us power true, but we could just build more plants. Also bear in mind your 2 or 3 plants has to be spread over 5 million people, so i doubt you could export much. The UK imports loads of stuff anyway. The big problem for you is the rest of the UK has a far bigger millatary then just Yorkshire. I think people in yorkshire would get sick of independence very quickly.

I always hug Daz when I see him, and there would be no point in commenting on his drinking habits as I can't really change them. Also Daz never posts anything offensive when he's drunk, only highly amusing things. (see my sig :wink:

)

They operate in London because it is the capital. That has nothing to do with this at all. Yorkshire's economy is self sustaining.

Yorkshire has the major power plants. We supply the majority of National Grid power.

The big problem for you is the rest of the UK has a far bigger millatary then just Yorkshire. I think people in yorkshire would get sick of independence very quickly.

The military isn't really a problem. Yorkshire has enough of a population that could resist any military action if it ever came to that. However, I don't believe it would. The international community is becoming more supportive of occupied/oppressed territories which seek to establish themselves as soveriegn nations. The UK would get owned by the international community if it shot us for asserting our right to be our own country.

Why would the people of Yorkshire get tired of their independence when they already don't consider themselves English? What a stupid thing to say!

Of course not. I can change any posts that make TSR unpleasant for other users though. Daz usually accidentally makes it more pleasant by providing entertainment :biggrin:

You are assuming everyone in yorkshire will back you. They wont. The UK has a great mix of people in it, and people of different counties have interbred so much there are barely any people who are purely from yorkshire. And no we wouldnt invade, we would just annex you, which would be easy to do. You would give up after a week, maybe two. And I doubt the international communtity would back you, in fact I think they would send troops in to back the rest of the UK up. America almost certainly would.
Seriously though, there would be absolutely nothing gained by Yorkshire spliting off, in fact the chances are you would lose.
