Obviously not the Leader, or Wrexham, but in another town in the UK I was reliably told their local council was dead keen on city status and a reporter was sent out to get vox pops so the scribe could update the population on local views.
Once the feedback was gained from a range of people, things were brought back to the office and presented.
Sadly the strong anti-city status feeling in said town had come through, so a 'try again' message was issued as it did not fit the wishes of mysterious higher ups. Why such types would want to stay on message, and whos message, I never knew.
The article then presented the townsfolk as being dead keen on being a city, and the city status bid.
As I said, not Wrexham, and probably coming up to 9-10 years ago too, so it might not even have happened
I can't remember why I am telling this tale, so will now shush.
