Are you seriously trying to say that the RAF doesn't have a presence in the north because it doesn't like northerners?!

Its unfortunate that RAF Leeming may no longer be secure, but I suspect the noise factor, plus the fact that the real estate is worth more than Lossie is the major factor.

Its an unfortunate situation, but the armed forces do not deploy for a particular region, but the country as a whole, therefore you cant say that the RAF doesn't care about the north.
