This happens in every country on earth some area's are poorer than others, in our country for many years the backbone has been the areas of London , Manchester and Birmingham including their inner and outer districts , the success and wealth of those areas over the centuries have sustained and provided for the less successful regions and areas of the UK , let's just be grateful and nice about it , what's wrong with being as one .
