Just had a quick look at actual town populations, not the whole borough . They're from wiki so some slight cynicism needed but we're not talking Daily Sport style reporting! Figures rounded.
Bolton 139.000
Blackburn 105,000
Oldham 104,000
Salford 104,000
St Helens 102,000
Rochdale. 96,000
Southport 90,000
Birkenhead 89,000
Burnley. 87,000
Bury 79,000
That's a quick snapshot of the North West. Very surprised to see my home town has gone over 100k but given the house building in recent years not surprised. So for the NW. It's Bolton. Anyone else want to throw in their regional candidates.
