I come from just outside Bolsover. it ain't in any bloody Midlands. As Derbyshire stretches North of Manchester city centre, is Manchester in The Midlands? Don't confuse constituency boundaries with cultural or real life ones.


The "city" we used to go to for big hospital appointments, football or shopping is Sheffield for starters. Do you think if Th*tcher thought that either North Derbyshire or North Nottinghamshire was anywhere other than oop North she would have wreaked the disgusting havoc she did?
