Well we are now on thin ice...
How about we South England where wealth and all good things are generated separate from North England. We'll draw new borders around Wales but including Birmingham and ditch the rest. Let Northern England handle their own affairs.
I know this happens to big and small countries but it goes against all good common reason imo.
At an analytical level this has always been the case. European union member countries on the fringes have all similar problems. Closer you are to the centre of anything the better off one is. So places out on the peripheries are less developed, poorer and unable to compete
I'll just remind you that the North of England was once the workshop of the world and the Southerners generally were scraping a living off the land.
How times change.
