Only South East England Matters.

I watched the weather forecast on BBC TV National News this evening. The programme is made in London. At the end of the piece, the forecaster said ‘We’re all due to get some colder weather this week, but the problems with snow should hopefully be confined to the northern half of the country.’ Hopefully? Doesn’t this suggest just a hint of partiality on the part of the presenter? This is an old gripe.
