That's quite imaginative but fundamentally untrue
Given that the Midlands includes Birmingham, whilst a shithole nonetheless a very populous and rich shithole, as well as Nottingham which is still one of the UK's most profitable cities via the medium of tourism (thank you Kevin Costner) and a fascinating example of what would happen if none of us had bothered to crawl out of the primoridal slime and evolve, in the form of the whole of Derbyshire.

Are you suggesting that the rest of the country wants Birmingham?
Because I can guarantee that it's not true.

God no
Just its retail industry. If I lived in Birmingham I'd spunk all my money on tat as well

So, to summarise
the Midlands isn't just made up of the bits nobody wants because of the vibrant commercial industry, which you freely admit only exists because the beetle-browed, knuckled-dragging inhabitants have to distract themselves from their awful existence by buying things.

Excellent counter-argument there, Foxo.
