Whoever drafted the map is a bit thick, I would suggest, and doesn't know an awful lot about these islands.

The best humour always contains a core of truth.

If the "joke" has no basis in reality - it's not a joke.

I don't get "elected a monkey" for the North East. I know they hanged a monkey as a French spy in Hartlepool. What am I missing.

Nearly, it was the mascot of hartlepool united football team and he was elected but it was mainly a joke.

he was mayor for 10 years, so not sure it was that much of a joke.
