  This title contains 'Guaranteed fully organic' Yorkshire humour compiled by Austin Mitchell, media personality and politician, as consolation for the demise of Old Labour, flat 'ats and vowels to match. Austin comments: 'No other county, country or even continent has so much wit and wisdom as is contained in traditional Yorkshire humour. The county's jokes come out of Yorkshire's native heath and hill, mine and mill, evolved not made. They revolve round the absolute basics of death, disease, defeats at cricket, diarrhoea, debt, depression and the dole'. Here is a rib-tickling selection of the very best of Yorkshire humour.
