Local Elections - What are Metro Mayors?

Election 2024

Available for over a year

On 2 May 2024, voting will take place for ten metro mayors across England. If you live in London, the West Midlands urban area, Greater Manchester, the Tees Valley, West Yorkshire and the Liverpool City Region, you’ve had these mayors for some time. But this time there'll also be brand new positions created in the North East, York and North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, and the East Midlands. But what exactly do these mayors do, and what responsibilities do they have? Here's a guide from the Âé¶¹Éç's political correspondent, Peter Saull. Image credit: Getty.
