Sorry, can't find a link yet, maybe someone else can search.
Don't fully understand this system but, maybe through debate here, things will become clearer to me.
Quote this though:
"Under the directly elected mayor system, the mayor would be elected directly by the electorate and would hold the office for a term of four years.
The mayor would appoint the cabinet and allocate decision making powers between the mayor, cabinet members and the cabinet as a whole"
You can have your say : [email protected] by November 18th. "
Of course, Cllr. Britcliffe has shown an interest to put himself forward... 
'Boris' Britcliffe ... sorta' flows though .. LOL. |
What a coincidence that a person who is likely to lose power at the next election invents a way to remain in power.
Mind you according to the Observer headline I'm pretty sure it's not round here, it's in Hydburn
