The south is usually warmer because it is closer to the equator. The closer to the equator the more direct the suns waves are which makes it warmer. In the summer though they are about the same because the Earth is tilted which makes it warmer in the north because it has more direct rays of sunlight.

Why is southern Britain warmer than northern Britain?

In the northern hemispherethe further south you go nearer the tropics the warmer it gets, as the sun reaches higher in the sky warming the land and sea more effectively. Therefore, on average, land further south (eg South of France) is warmer than Britain, and, on average, North Africa is warmer than France. The North of Scotland is much cooler on average than the south for the same reason. In Scotland, the sun does not reach as high in the sky (even in summer) as it does in the south and so does not warm the land and sea as effectively as it would in the south. Add to this prevailing winds from the arctic (rather than from the West in the south of Britain) and the north of the country ends up much cooler on average.
