@l_muffy I think any Northern regionalist movement is a non-starter if it embraces woke liberal-Left thinking. Most people in the North won't go near it.
@mmcdstudio @LiamThorpECHO@LiverpoolVision@MetroMayorSteve Let me spell it out. People didn't want Joe to be metro mayor because he was strongly associated with being the city mayor. So why would they want the metro mayor taking on the city mayor functions? I'm not saying I agree with them, just that is the likely reaction.
@mmcdstudio @LiamThorpECHO@LiverpoolVision@MetroMayorSteve I didn't question your background. You clearly assumed I don't like Lpool, which was not the case. Usual twitter nonsense because someone disagrees with you, over the LCR of all things!!
@mmcdstudio @LiamThorpECHO@LiverpoolVision@MetroMayorSteve EXACTLY. Which is why people did not want the city mayor becoming the metro mayor. Joe was a candidate against Steve and Luciana Berger.
@mmcdstudio @LiamThorpECHO@LiverpoolVision@MetroMayorSteve When I was campaigning for Steve one of the most common arguments I heard against Joe Anderson's candidacy was that he was too strongly associated with running Liverpool. Which is why Rotheram's slogan was 'no borough left behind', not 'Liverpool first'.
@mmcdstudio @LiamThorpECHO@LiverpoolVision@MetroMayorSteve It's not playing to a narrative, it's accepting reality. Voters in Halton or Wirral are not going to like the metro mayor focussing on running Liverpool rather than the strategic governance of the whole region, in the hope that Liverpool's prosperity will trickle down to them.
@mmcdstudio @LiamThorpECHO@LiverpoolVision@MetroMayorSteve It's called the Liverpool City Region because it has more recognition worldwide than Merseyside, but it would be wrong to underestimate the strength of feeling in areas in the LCR that feel little affinity with Liverpool.
