The people in the Wirral I find baffling. They look down on Liverpool - I don't know why? I can't see what they have that is special.
The fact is that the Wirral is a part of Liverpool socio-economically. Without Liverpool they would not exist.
Why was this woman actually listening to a Liverpool radio station?
Anyway, she wanted to be re-called Cheshire, it's on her birth and marriage cert after all,
Mine has Lancashire on it and I want nothing to do with Lancashire. I want Liverpool and only Liverpool on it.
Yes, I like the idea of a Greater Liverpool but even better if all these regions were just under the Liverpool umbrella.
Yep all one city, except Southport, St. Helens and Newton-le Willows. They are culturally firmly in Lancashire, don't like being with us and better away from us. Listen to the accents. I see Johnny Vegas does not say he is from Liverpool - he right in not saying he is. St. Helens should be let go.

The Wirral only came about because of Liverpool. Without Liverpool it would be a small collection of hamlets.
