    ... actually, I believe the UK Capital's *official title is the 'City of Westminster'; the rest ... comprising the numerous Boroughs ... comes under Greater London. But then, I'm a lowly Scot ... so what do I know?

    1, London
    2, Birmingham
    3, Manchester
    4, Liverpool
    5, Glasgow ... yehey!
    6, Sheffield
    7, Nottingham
    8, Newcastle-upon-Tyne

    The city of London is not where either houses of parliment,whitehall or Buckingham palace and as you say its the City of Westminster where all the "power" is.

    BUt then saying that many of the money makers and the Bank of England are in the City of London who some would say hold the real power..
    Oh lord why did you make so many clothes and shoe shops
