    I only have 3, but friends in the market towns around me manage 4. For example in Bawtry you have:

    Mayor of Bawtry

    City of Doncaster Civic Mayor

    City of Doncaster Elected Mayor

    Mayor of South Yorkshire

    One mayor and one police and crime commissioner type thing.

    None, I think. Unless the Abergavenny one somehow covers us, if they know where we are?

    Our Police Crime thingumybob has been reelected on a 19% turnout. If my maths is right, less than 7% of the electorate voted for him…

    Off topic, other than it’s an election day pondering (so sorry).

    But, what motivates someone to be a candidate for the monster raving loony party?

    I can understand wanting to be a candidate for them rather than for the conservatives.

    Is there a Mayor Maximum or can a town collect them like bling Pokémon?

    Not sure which area has the most mayors.

    But I’m confident the polls has confirmed which area has the most bigots and racists… The Tees Valley

    West Yorkshire Mayor – who is also PCC.  Leeds has a lord mayor but it’s ceremonial

    France. Every village. And they all have budgets. Local democracy is ‘lively’.

    You know those people who have no personality to speak of so become ‘zany’ in order to be memorable?

    Saying that, I admire the MRLP candidates’ level of commitment to not having a personality so I do have a soft spot for them.
