AKAMD 0 #2 Posted May 10, 2021 As did Andy Burnham when he was elected at Greater Manchester. The short answer is he can't give 100% to two jobs and Dan Jarvis should have resigned his seat when elected Mayor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Jeffrey Shaw 90 #10 Posted May 10, 2021 (edited) Plus: whyever is the new 'county' post called a Mayor? It's nothing of the sort. Maybe 'REEVE' would be a better name. After all, a sheriff derives the title from a shire-reeve. Edited May 10, 2021 by Jeffrey Shaw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
