This is a story of perceived injustice; Not only financial neglect but also emotional and social neglect. As people, we feel an injustice has been done when someone else gets a bit more than we do for achieving the same things - and it's deep seated. People have battled against inequality for years. And this inequality continues to increase whatever spin Westminster sees fit to give it.
I argue that Yorkshire is a state of mind as much as it is a county - a collection of like minds who can disagree creatively and amicably to bring a bit of common sense to the table, level the playing field in a spirit of common benefit and reach a mutually advantageous decision without waffle, prevarication and obfuscation. Given independence I believe you will agree that we can bring Yorkshire back to what it once was - the driving force behind the UK.
