I'm not a fan of elected Mayors. We already have too many layers of Government. A mayor for the whole of Yorkshire is a ridiculous idea. It is too much power for one man/woman and party.
I would favour some powers being devolved to local authorities, but that seems to be contrary to this Government's desire to weaken Metropolitan Councils.
I can't see it ever happening, not all the authorities are on board.

It does, however, highlight the difficulty in keeping a country stable. When one section is allowed to break themselves off, then there's nothing preventing a nation splitting into numerous near powerless autonomous regions. How does one allow an area to secede when & where appropriate and yet stop tragic break up where an area simply sees an opportunity for personal benefit ?
gromit is correct the last thing we need is more layers of politicians with their snout and trotters in the trough. Personally I'd abolish the devolved "parliaments" too and the lords, the mayor of the cities etc and most of the town halls of the uk. In my town we have 59 councilors, gawd knows what they do apart from claim exes. They have kin "cabinet" F\F\S !
