Glasgow, Liverpool and Manchester
The information below was taken from the 3 City Survey. More information is provided in the notes.
Influencing decisions in Glasgow, Liverpool and Manchester
Relatively few respondents in Glasgow, felt they were able to influence decisions affecting their local area, roughly similar to results in Manchester and Liverpool – 21%-22% in each city “definitely agreeing” or “tending to agree” that they had any such influence, with even fewer believing they were able to influence decisions affecting their city, or the UK as a whole.
A higher percentage of the Glasgow respondents felt able to influence decisions affecting the UK compared to respondents from the other cities.
Notes
The 3 City Survey was carried out in partnership between the Glasgow Centre for Population Health and Health Scotland. The full report can be found here.
The survey was carried out between July and November 2011. The sample size was 3,701 in total (1,288 in Glasgow, 1,202 in Liverpool and 1,211 in Manchester). This was achieved with an overall 55% response rate, ranging from 53% in Manchester to 58% in Glasgow (the rate for Liverpool was 55%), and from 53% in the least deprived areas of the three cities to 58% in the most deprived areas.
