As today is the day we all vote in our local elections I think we should all take a moment to also vote to put Birmingham on the new Monopoly board! At the time of writing Birmingham has 1777 votes, putting it in 33rd place! Coventry has 886 (49th), Wolverhampton has 684 (55th), and Litchfield has 268 (79th). First place (currently Baronville with 6807) isn’t that far off! Wait a second… Baronville?!?

The results so far show exactly why this type of voting is a rubbish idea.
A UK town version actually designed (as opposed to thrown together) by Hasbro could be a reasonable idea – even just using census data and picking the largest 22 towns/cities would be better than this (although I guess there might need to be some weighting of the results to give Scotland/Wales/NI a a better outcome).
