This came through on my Facebook feed the other day.
⚠️ After President Trump renamed Lake Ontario to Lake America, and The Gulf of Mexico to The Gulf of America whilst also hinting he may change the name of The Atlantic or Pacific Ocean to the American Ocean, Yorkshire's mayors have been inspired and have got together to decide what changes to make over here.
The Pennines will officially become The Yorkshire Alps 🏔
Any area of the Pennines that is not actually in Yorkshire will just be considered the western slope of Yorkshire.
The Leeds and Liverpool Canal will be shortened to simply The Leeds Canal, after the mayors decided that mentioning Liverpool was unnecessary information 🤷♂️
Robin Hood's Bay will be renamed Sean Bean's Bastard Bay 🌊
Boston Spa will be renamed Leeds Spa. It's in Leeds not Boston 🤨 An absolute no brainer that one.
The North Sea will become the Yorkshire Ocean.
And all KFC outlets in the region will have to be renamed Yorkshire Fried Chicken. It's not fried in Kentucky is it? It's fried here! 🍗
