I disagree. Northern England made the money - Southern England spent it. Those ungrateful little so-and-so's took our hard work for granted - while we died at 27 working in some shoddy factory, fueling the UK's industrial revolution, they enjoyed a life of luxury and stole our money.
We should have left back then. Liverpool was the UK's wealthiest city at one point - yes, wealthier than London. Now it's very poor and the people are poorly qualified. A once great port city, now a shadow of its former self..
Oh well, they'll all be gone when the North Sea claims it.
Oh, you poor bastards. You look like Mongolians as well? Well, my hometown started as a trading post in the Baltic as a rival to Tallinn, failed miserably, but later became the northernmost urban area with a population over 1 million. And those moved the second oldest university in Scandinavia there to undermine the influence of my current hometown to bask in the glory. The poor industrial peasants flocked to uncivilized cities like Tampere and worked the steel mills. Yes, we took the money, but HA HA! Just like in Leeds.
And then Tampere stroke back and Turku is just a stagnant city with huge housing and corporate problems while Tampere attracts people all the time. The Turku urban area has been at 250,000 for some 30 years while Tampere rose from 200,000 to 320,000 in 30 years.
Ok, enough of this already. Let's talk about international flights from NI instead.
Ok, the Northern English nobility were Danish, but still... Northern folk should be subjucated. And who cares about the body count, more people died in famines or as infants than in those 11th century wars in Britain.
But let's stop it here. I don't want to continue this tongue-in-cheek argument dancing on corpses.
If it wasn't for the south Northern England would be a 3rd world Country, you need us..
Really? I've not been too impressed with the South personally. It's ridiculously expensive, but I can't for the life of me see why.
I've made some great friends in my time down here though so I'll certainly keep coming back!
Nah. We could survive - on EU Objective 1 Funding.
Anyway, we're poor you're rich etc etc. End of discussion.
Not even France has that many foreign visitors, so the actual number will be lower.
Your sponge of the EU! Let's hope we're out of the EU before then because all you Northern scum would be flooding down south causing us pain and misery.

Reason: response to deleted post
Well since USA only had 67million tourists no way did Florida have 90million
If you count domestic visitors, Florida can have more than the US has international tourists.
