It's gold up north

From UK Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne's Autumn Statement --

And we’re announcing a new Sovereign Wealth Fund for the North of England so that the shale gas resources of the North are used to invest in the future of the North.

Just like how Scotland got a Sovereign Wealth Fund so that oil resources of Scotland were used to invest in the future of Scotland!

Also, is the North of England sovereign now?
