No, not a joke. There is a thread here 2peasrefugees.boards.net/thread/135864/ok-wtf-super-hero-trumpI just hope Boris or Liz don't get ideas. Shudder. I am, and at the the same time not, amazed that Boris has earned a million pounds making speeches since he left office, add in his holidays, his constituents must feel well served.

Oh, I looked and missed the other thread.
I agree about BoJo. What a grifter.

Well, maybe not … I bought his book about London many years ago when he was doing a U.S. book tour and I saw him on TV. I fell for it! Do you still call the Mayor of London the “Lord Mayor,” or just the Mayor?

They are completely different roles and people. The Lord Mayor is the leader of the City of London and the head of the City of London Corporation, the governing body of the Square Mile. Elected annually, the Lord Mayor of the City of London is an international ambassador for the UK's financial and professional services sector. The Mayor of London leads the Greater London Authority and is responsible for the strategic governance of Greater London. Along with the London Assembly of 25 members, the Mayor is accountable for pan-London issues which include transport, economic development, policing (outside the City of London), civil defence and fire services, planning and the environment.

Not a joke and apparently many images were taken from stock photos online. Even from Amazon listings. Perhaps without permission. So says the Twitter sphere.
