Why can’t McGuinness talk properly? What’s wrong with the letter ‘H’?
He's from Bolton, in the north. It's their thing.

So don't be racist! smile
This might be a silly question, but why can’t people from Bolton say the letter ‘H’?

They can, they just don't want to! (I'm from Yorkshire, we're the same! biggrin)

You soft southern shandy drinkers should note that the letter H should be pronounced "aitch" not "haitch" and that's a fact my over warm chums.

I'm definitely a softie southerner and it makesd me want to punch someone if they say "haitch". My ex-SIL, not the sharpest tool in the box, told her kids it was haitch because you don't say "orse or ouse".

Maybe if you Northerners held onto your H’s a bit more carefully there wouldn’t be so many floating around down here for our idiots to slap where they don’t belong and drive me up the bloody wall.

I don’t mind people dropping the H on the BBC but those who insist on adding one need to be shot. The sake of humanity.
