BBC: Manchester tops second city poll
Manchester is thought to be England's second most important city ahead of Birmingham, a BBC survey has found.
The most important city, it goes without saying, is Liverpool.
Manchester = Great Big No.2

for what? car theft?
Check your stats, Mac Ladd (if that is your real name, Nite Owl): Liverpudlians are famous for their sense of humour, but even they are getting a bit fed up of the tired old car theft clichés. The simple fact is that Liverpool is one of the safest UK cities in which to leave your car: far safer than Machester.
Thefts of vehicles per 1000 of the population, Jan-Mar 2006 (the latest available figures):
Liverpool - 1.6
Manchester - 3.0
Spottedanother soubriquet, eh?
My manager is a Macc Lad & he hates scousers. Is this a general thing or is he just one of a kind?
That's cuz dey can't drive wiv the handcuffs on!
My comments software has a built-in owl pellet detector.
The Liverpool-Manchester hatred is very much a general thing, although, personally speaking, I have a much bigger problem with Dumfries (but let's not go there).
I think my sides have just split, Monsieur NITE OWL.
Let's hope your family don't put your name down for one of those nursing homes run by Calderdale Council.
