I also live in the UK. I mean, sure I agree with you, but that doesn't stop it being common parlance.

- thebruce87m 2y agoIt’s definitely not common parlance in Scotland to say “north east” when talking about the UK and mean England, but I can’t speak for NI or Wales. A UK website making international articles should at least use “North East of England”, or perhaps “North East (England)” to comply with the official ONS ITL name as someone else pointed out. Even UK wide articles should do this.
