Then we could have another footy team, Bournemouth City….. imagine the derby matches!

It doesn’t enjoy the kudos it once did. I think there are 69 cities in the UK now.

UK City of Culture isn't what it was either.

Don’t need one these days, any town that has a primary school and renamed it a university can be a city….. that and the fact that the Queen can do what the chuff she wants!

We already have the cathedral of football so they let us off.

Seaside towns aren't cities - not grimy enough. That includes you Brighton & Hove.

Agree - there are enough cities now

 

[Runnerrunnerru]

We certainly have the traffic to rival any UK city.

No marketable benefits, and the more that gain city status dilutes the prestige. Sooo....would love it!

If thats the shortlist who were the other 6 they kicked into touch .....................................

I say go for it. I'm not convinced it will bring any real changes to daily life in the area but it would be nice to be equivalent to the other major populations on the South Coast - Soton, Pompy and Hove.

BCP is just one massive sprawl now. Lob the lot together as Wessex City.

Small town near Swanage, you're just a small town near Swanage.................

 

[New Forest Cherry]

the status would only apply to bournemouth not the rest of the BCP conurbation
that's just weird.....
