Ceremonial county

The Ceremonial County should be Essex. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.105.6.182 (talkcontribs) 22:30, 11 June 2007.

Not according to the Lieutenancies Act 1997. Greater London is the ceremonial county for all London boroughs (but not the City). [2] MRSCTalk 06:06, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I stand corrected. However Upminster is in the historic/traditional county of Essex - there are some who maintain that these traditional counties are still valid and should receive some reconition, should Essex get a mention in the article? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.105.48.22 (talkcontribs) 18:29, 12 June 2007.
I've added a mention and link to Chafford (hundred) which was the ancient subdivision covering the area. MRSCTalk 06:51, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sexiest town 2009

Does anyone want to put it in a mention. People might be interested. You can find info here: http://www.mirror.co.uk/2009/09/08/upminster-named-sexiest-town-in-britain-and-bangor-s-third-115875-21655996/ .Larnu UK 19:03, 13 September 2009 (BST)

List of members of parliament

This belongs in Upminster (UK Parliament constituency). MRSC (talk) 18:38, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Who is Who

This belongs in List of people from Havering, but see List of people from Barking and Dagenham for a list that is properly referenced. MRSC (talk) 18:41, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

From my understanding of history most of the people on the who is who list that you have removed never lived in anywhere called Havering ! Upminster and Cranham are the reference not some greater political boundary. 217.34.44.59 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 14:57, 5 February 2010 (UTC).[reply]
