£60,000 for a new limo for the Lord Mayor – it’s an absolute disgrace.

If I was on the council I would suggest they pin up his robes and put him on a bike (a tandem if the Lady Mayor is with him). This council seems to favour bikes over cars. He could probably ride on the footpath like the rest of them, and get away with it, they always do.
