    Can you point to where the map hurt you?

    It pokes fun at londoners just as much as northerners. In fact, id say it’s crueller to the south west and Wales than anywhere.

        Yes it’s stereotypes.

        The London stereotype here is where London is referenced: Funny accents. Suburban sprawl. Craft beer types Islam fundamentalists.

            Yes, as are all the other traits. It’s the stereotype or how common they are that is being poked fun at here.

            Per your comparison, most of Scotland is not urban sprawl, even if it exists there.

                Lol, yes, but most of Scotland is not urban sprawl. Most of the southeast between London and Brighton is.

      It says the landscape of Yorkshire, The Lake District, and The Dales is, post industrial.

      Has this person never been outside of London? It just sounds like who doesn’t actually know what they’re talking about.

        I like that you think the poster submitted original content.

        Did you know that in London, there are people from the other regions of the UK and also from overseas. It’s a mass generalisation. The map uses ellipses and circles.

        Don’t take it too seriously.
