Leeds shouldn't be Bretonia at this point anyways. It's almost fully Gallic controlled for over 2 years with 5 out of 6 bases (the 6th being the satellite) belonging to GRN or Gallic corporations. Same goes for Edinburgh, they should both be Gallic Borderworlds instead of Bretonia rule-wise.
On the topic of what can be done about this rule, I never was a fan of the new rules in general and issues like these were bound to happen sooner or later. Personally, I'd just revert the rules to what they were before and expand those with extra clarification, examples, context and explanation about every single one of them. They'd be more complicated, but it's not that big of an issue if we cover everything, and as someone said it before - it's a complicated game, giving it simple rules just doesn't work.
