'The Square Mile', or 'The City of London' (the OG London founded by the Romans), is a city WITHIN London (the newer city founded by the Normans). It's not a borough, and it enjoys lots of autonomy. In a way, it behaves like one of the countries of the UK.

Nice, very accurate poll! Its not like people would prefer to 'like' than have to 'comment'...Totally unbiased, and not used by every shite Instagram account.
As someone who lives and works in London, this is fascinating. Although this report is somewhat negative, I see the comparative independence of the City as one of the many checks-and-balances in the UK - yes it could be better, but I think the difficulty of any one individual or group to obtain "absolute" power is one of the most important reasons for the UK's sustained position as a relatively wealthy and stable nation.
There’s no reason why some should have to decide whether to eat or heat their homes while the city of London dodges tax daily. I hope we see an end to it one day
@volce wagen in comparison to mass shootings in schools, hospitals, bars, yoga, music festivals, the police brutality of black ppl, the ignorant dismissal of climate change, and the ever-growing political divide of the states... give me narrow roads and a royal family (just figure heads at this point) any day of the week
volce wagen 1) Londons roads are the same as any big city 2) you won't get stabbed unless you're stupid 3) expensive uni due to the proportionally high pay rate, same with rent prices 4) the wages are fine, actually higher than most cities 5) And well I'm not a fan of the royal family so I think you're right there, but most pay it no mind xD
The City of London is counted together with Hackney in terms of coronavirus case reporting as the local health board is shared between the two regions, so I am pretty sure there must be some cases among the City's residents.
Huh. The more you know, I guess. I think this is what you get for being among the first cultures to create a massive, law dodging trading empires. This kind of stuff is still left over.

London has 32 Boroughs, and 1 city. The City of London itself is, per the name, a city, and does not count of one of the London boroughs.
You are pretty much right, but City of Westminster is a city in its own right, and a borough.
@@Locutus the city of Westminster is specifically designed as a London borough, and counts as one of them. However the city of London is not

If I am not mistaken its sovereign in and of itself and much of the worlds corrupt banking is managed through it to evade taxes being the most common.
@NPC#6789 Orange Man Bad Their freedom, our "slavedom", in the "United" Kingdom.
It's not sovereign in the slightest. This is nonsensical. Also, most banking business moved away from the City years ago. The whole thing is tripe.
Where did a corporate bank get sovereignty from ?
