Absolutely true Sussex was isolated by the downs and Weald beyond to the north and sea to the south retained its owns indipendace and kings longer than most other regions on England

That explains a lot, every time I enter the realm of Sussex, it's like being on the set of
' The Hills Have Eyes' :D

Apparently Brighton & Hove is the most godless place in England. So it still hasn't made it south of the twin pylons.

We need a wall around Sussex and make Kent pay for it, reinstate the monarchy of Sussex either look for a descendant of Harold Godwinson or just crown the duke of Sussex declare independence from the UK and apply to join the EU

Amen to that.

n.b - Any chance of ceding Crawley to Surrey and reclaiming Tunbridge Wells from Kent?

Always thought the shenanigans of the bonfire societies seemed rather pagan.
