You can apply for a Yorkshire Passport or "Visitor From Somewhere Else" Visa (Maximum stay of 28 days) from City of York council.
Postal address:
City of York Council,
Library Square,
York,
YO1 7DU
Email: ycc@york.gov.uk
You WILL have to stop at Passport Control on the Yorkshire side of the Humber Bridge or Meadowhall at Sheffield (dedicated lane on the M1).
You WILL need proof of ID, your Visa, and four weeks wage slips to prove you can support yourself for the time you are in God's Own County.
There WILL be a short test to determine your Englishness and a lollipop for the kids (30p each, available at the counter) if you are allowed in.
For your information:
There are plans for further Yorkshire Passport Controls being built to help stop the influx of 'Suvverners', 'Geordies', 'Monkey-hangers', Red Roses and 'Scots' into The Ridings on a permanent basis.
These will be at Huddersfield (A62), Middlesborough (A19) Scotch Corner (A1). All lesser and minor roads in to the Fair County are being watched, manned and defended by local farmers with Land Rover Defenders (usually blue ones) and shotguns (guns that fire shot). We have our own Coastguard infrastructure almost in place so don't even think about a sneaky one round Flamborough Head of an evening.
Our airports at Leeds/Bradford, Ool and Doncaster have their own measures in place.
These measures are being taken in the likely event of the Rest of England falling to the will and wish of Johnny Foreign types, so The People's Republic of Yorkshire can keep calm and carry on.
Should England fall, then there are secret measure to ensure that everyone n Yorkshire is kept safe and well. Unless you're from "Somewhere Else" in which case, you'll be sent packing with no cash incentive or other financial help offered or implied. The alternative will be accommodation in Noth Pakistan (Bradford on other people's maps) or Ool. (Hull on other people's maps).
If you have proof of being born in Yorkshire, then you might find a small donation (upwards of the price of a pint) to The People's Republic Of Yorkshire will smooth the way to finding a more permanent residency within the boundaries of York, North, South, West and the East Riding of Yorkshire.
