Good idea...
Why does the Mayor of London page only go back to the year 2000? I can't find any reference to a mayor in the nineties at all. I even pulled up the UK,gov site. Does anybody know who the mayor was at that time?
I don’t know anything about it, but from Wikipedia, I found this. Would time pretty well with “What did Diana find out?”
The Greater London Council, the elected government for Greater London, was abolished in 1986 by the Local Government Act 1985. Strategic functions were split off to various joint arrangements. Londoners voted in a referendum in 1998 to create a new governance structure for Greater London. The directly elected mayor of London was created by the Greater London Authority Act 1999 in 2000 as part of the reforms.
Thanks, it was confusing me. That's quite a few years between when the council was abolished and a mayor was elected. Who actually ran things in the meantime? And who was over the various joint arrangements? I'll dig into this...
