Love to live up north or in Wales, especially when I see the size house I could buy.
But then again, cheaper for a reason, salaries less up there, it's all relative.
When Heinz closed a plant in Harlesden they were given the option of taking redundancy or taking a job up in Wigan. Quite a few upped sticks & moved up north. By the time they'd got expenses & sold their houses down south they could afford some pretty decent sized houses up here.
Sounds like they were offered a good deal
Sky has joined the "Northern Powerhouse" government BS, we have some new fancy offices called @LeedsDock.
Number of teams were affected, some close to me, some of my counter parts were offered jobs up there. But they were not covering expenses, they would also get a pay cut.
Unsurprisingly, not one single person moved up there from teams I know. As a result those teams now take longer to burn through the work
