 England - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
London is a special case, and is the one region which currently has a representative authority as well as a directly elected mayor.
The 32 London boroughs and the Corporation of London remain the local form of government in the city.
Note that London is not on this list (Greater London is a region and the City of London is tiny), and that one of the two candidates for the status of England's "second city", Manchester, is down in sixth.

JLGC is the London office of the Council of Local Authorities for International Relations (CLAIR), which represents all tiers of government in Japan and enjoys its 15th anniversary this year.
The delayed counting procedure for the elections held in the capital yesterday means that only speculation was on offer today, with exit polls predicting a narrow victory for Mr Livingstone coupled with a reduction in Labour's numbers on the London Assembly.
With London's ethnic minorities forming 25% of the electorate, Ken Livingstone is also seeking to maintain Labour's leading position among fl voters and used a visit to Old Compton Street to make a last minute pitch to gay voters in the capital.

 City Mayors: London election 2004
The first London mayoral election in 2000 was won by Mr Livingstone, who was previously leader of the Greater London Council (GLC) and, after the Council's forced close down by the then Conservative government, sat as a Labour Member of Parliament.
He won subsequently the mayoral election in May 2000, and was promptly expelled from the Labour Party for five years, with Prime Minister Tony Blair predicting that his tenure would be "a disaster for London".
Six months after London Mayor Ken Livingstone introduced a central London congestion charging system, road traffic in the centre of the UK capital has eased considerably more than supporters and critics of the scheme predicted when it was launched in February 2003.

The Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone, was elected on 4 May 2000 and as head of the Greater London Authority he is accountable for the strategic government of Greater London.
His position as head of the Corporation of London means that he is involved in many of the same issues as the Mayor but as the representative of those who live, work or run a business in the Square Mile.
I believe it is the wish of Londoners that those who have suffered deaths of their loved ones or serious injury should also be helped by all Londoners.

The 2004 elections almost saw a repeat of the performance four years previously where Labour and Conservative were equally tied, the Liberal Democrats received seats proportionate to their vote share and smaller parties such as the Greens were able to break out of the ghetto of fringe politics and into the representative arena.
Labour may yet rue the day it decided to hold all of the 2004 elections on one date in order to boost turnout as Ukip now have two seats on the London Assembly and all that brings with it – legitimacy, mandate, staff, resources and votes.
