Colin Holt (Yorkshire activist) : ウィキペディア英語版
Colin Holt (activist)

Roland Colin Holt, known as Colin Holt (1945–2006) was a founder member of the Yorkshire Ridings Society, and served as its chairman for many years until his death.
Colin Holt lived in Fenwick near Doncaster. Until his retirement he was a lecturer at Doncaster College. Though best known for vocally championing the cause of Yorkshire, Colin Holt was also a dedicated member of Moss and District Parish Council, and was also a vintage vehicle enthusiast.
He also served on the committee of the Association of British Counties, to which the YRS is affiliated.
==The Yorkshire Ridings Society==

As publicity officer of the Yorkshire Ridings Society, Colin Holt achieved his first publicity coup through his refusal to pay bills addressed to "Fenwick, South Yorkshire" rather than "Fenwick, Yorkshire" or "Fenwick, West Riding". Eventually, after many official letters, British Telecom cut the Holts off. They were not reconnected for several years.〔(Yorkshire Post, 25 May 2007 )〕 After British Telecom was privatized, the company agreed to make the address read "Yorkshire" and the Holts had their telephone back.〔(Journal; A County by a New Name Doesn't Smell as Sweet New York Times, Monday, 14 September 2009 )〕
Colin Holt had a genius for generating publicity, which the Yorkshire Ridings Society used throughout his chairmanship.
His message was simple and unchanging: that the sidelining of Yorkshire's ancient North, West and East Ridings, under local government re-organisation in 1974, was a crime and an insult.
