I would think the Irish descendants in Liverpool would be largely Catholic, whereas the Welsh descendants and the English would not be (in general).
from the person who built Liverpool his name was something scouse. I am a scouser and I have ate scouse once it is just the same as stew. I am 13 and love living in Liverpool! great answer from the lad above but unfortunatley not true. the word "scouse" originates from an old seamans meal probably tracing its past back to the old germanic "labskaus" which was a stew with the cheapest parts of the animal its meat could provide mixed with potatoes and anything else that could be thrown in ( a poormans meal). it became known as "lobscouse" and is known in parts of lancashire and the north of England as "lobby". the meal differs from place to place but was made famous by the liverpudlians who by cause or nature turned it into their traditional dish; hence the word "scouse" and the nickname of "scousers" referring to folk from Liverpool. what the lad above was referring to is a legend that a giant called "john scouse" built Liverpool, sorry lad, this is a bit of our scouse propaganda I'm afraid, would be great if it were true though. scousers are known to be funny hard knocks, so do not mess with them!
