Time To Fire The Mayor

Directly elected executive Mayors are a concept wholly alien to this country on every conceivable level. That Labour is apparently planning to put up Sir Alan Sugar demonstrates, even more clearly than the current spectacle of Boris Johnson, that the whole thing should be done away with.

    Here in London I am supposedly represented by three local Borough Councillors, a member of the GLA, the Mayor himself, a MEP and a MP!
