City status - are we going far enough? - Let's go for full re-branding, damn the expense!

Is medway borough council (sic) being too humble in its current attempt to re-brand itself as a city? Having lost city status for Rochester through incompetence, negligence, stupidity, arrogance, lack of professionalism (choose any that fit) perhaps it needs to up its game a bit. Here are a few suggestions that might help:-

1. Rename Rochester Castle as Medway Castle -

 Medway Castle


2. Rename Rochester Cathedral as Medway Cathedral -


 Medway Cathedral

3. Go for the city name Medway upon Medway.

Some more stunning and original ideas:-

A. Rename Gillingham Footbal Club as Medway Football Club.
B. Rename the various towns as Chatham in Medway, Gillingham in Medway, Strood in Medway etc. Or better still Upper Medway, Middle Medway and Lower Medway we could also include Lesser Medway, Greater Medway, Medway under Medway, Medway Rural, Medway Urban, Inner Medway, Outer Medway, Medway Without, Medway Within - the re-branding list goes on!
C. Rename Chatham Dockyard as Medway Dockyard.
D. Change all references to Rochester, Chatham, Strood etc in the works of Charles Dickens to Medway!

Then they will take medway borough council (sic) seriously!

I still don't understand why it's called Medway. Why not rename it Rochester City Council considering that's the heart of the district. Or even Chatham Borough Council?? Maybe that makes too much sense. Anyway, I'd like to congratulate the Conservatives on retaining the council yesterday. I still have no faith with Labour in Medway. They'd run this place into the ground.
