The Mayor of London used to have a pet fish. It lived in the Mayor’s office at City Hall. It was named Boris, after the previous mayor. The fish died in 2019. True story.
Also, the Mayor’s official salary is £151,648. That’s a lot of pasties. But they also get a £20,000 expense account for “entertaining.” So if you see the Mayor buying you a drink, say thank you.
And remember: the loser gets a free trip to the nearest pub to drown their sorrows. That’s not official policy, but it’s what always happens.
