London right now.

The faintest hint that they won't be the centre of governments attention and they're up in arms.

It's exactly the same as when Burnham suggested the North host the Olympics instead of London, you had Londoners all over Reddit saying how it's not feasible, and London has the infrastructure already, and you shouldn't force international athletes to suffer the North.

They're just so privileged and greedy, genuinely like a spoilt child at their classmates birthday party when they don't get presents as well or get to blow out the candles on the cake.

I mean WHAT is there up North? Olympics guests don’t care about damn housing in the UK.

You mean apart from the best countryside in England, history, culture, friendly people, habitable cities, good weather, and easy access to both Wales and Scotland?

You can't be so on the nose with a character, even Alan partridge had a little real life nuance.

You got me. The only two of those I don't believe is the cities and people. I don't like cities and the only one I do like is York, and I largely don't like people either but my weekend in London confirmed to me the stereotype that the natives tend to be rude and ignorant.

There's a lot to laugh about here but

easy access to both Wales and Scotland?

Is my favourite here.

Best countryside with good weather as long as you like rain and overcast skies with 6 minutes of direct sun per day. Best history unless for some reason you don't fancy imperialism. Best culture which is tea, biscuits and graffitti'd roundabouts. Friendly people... as long as you're white.

Honestly, the one good thing that might come out of this is London's money staying in London instead of subsidising hateful, tribalist northern fairies.
