I have read the article.
All it confirms and shows is the map of the counties of England before April '74.
What you have said is absolutely correct for pre-1974.
But new counties were formed and boundaries changed in '74 and still exist today in 2026
Metropolitan boroughs in England (such as Birmingham or Leeds) belong to metropolitan counties like the West Midlands or West Yorkshire.
Leicester and Nottingham are inside the non-metropolitan counties of Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire respectively, but are completely independent of those county councils for local government.
Both Leicester and Nottingham combine the functions of both a county council and a district council within their city boundaries.
Same for Derby.
There are six metropolitan counties: Greater Manchester, Merseyside, South Yorkshire, Tyne and Wear, West Midlands and West Yorkshire.
They all have their own police forces too.
