We awoke this morning to news of torrential rain and storms in the South East, ok then, well you know it's not all that unusual to have electrical storms and heavy rain during the summer months but there you go.
The Daily Mail naturally has a headline enttiled, 'battered Britain'. Don't you mean battered South East? There also a story about Britains going to the polls in horrific weather, nope once again it's only in the bloody South East!
Earlier today someone started a thread expressing concern about voter turnout due to the bad weather and expressed genuine surprise when most other posters stated that it was glorious where they were. It's like the UK begins and ends in the South East in their minds.
It was the same during half term week, lots of stories about how terrible the weather was but it was baking hot in Wales and I even got very badly sunburned in Chester Zoo!
I know the South East has its head stuck up its arse a bit, but the UK is a very big place and just because the weather is bad/good in London it doesn't mean it's the same everywhere does it?

To be sick of Southern Eastern bias in the media with regards to the weather?
