That's what they said about the 'regional' assemblies (all just abolished except for the one in London) and that's what they said about the Greater London Council (abolished), 'Humberside' (abolished), the 'West' Midlands County Council - covering a population area slightly less than the population of Wales (abolished) and Avon - covering a population area of about a million people (abolished).
