Mayor of Manchester

If there was access to a stupendously fine wine cellar and various free bun fights in return for occasionally issuing bland and insincere reassurances about the state of Metrolink I might put myself forward - though both my age and breeding might count against me.
 
It may seem a little crass to do this, but I would certainly stand. I have infinite support in DDS (dutty south sale) and have the common touch. Im not scared of hard work and breaking eggs to make an omelette. I would appoint De Niro as my chief of staff and pay him thousands at the tax payers expense to carpet my residence...

All those in favour say aye.

You survived disembowelment and publicly setting yourself on fire, so you have my vote.

I'm sure you will look very fetching with that gold chain!

Go for it. You can be a dictator. Think of the power.

Before I met Terrance I would have slated you for this, however he's a thoroughly decent chap and his son was/is at our academy. He's a great sponsor for Manchester and unlike his peers has stayed here despite becoming wealthy and successful.

Obviously if he was still with us Mr Anthony Wilson would be the natural choice. RIP.

He's a decent enough Lad.

The Word was way ahead of its time.
 
The sort of feckwit idea that is designed to appeal to the dumb masses.

Why exactly does Manchester need an elected mayor? (Other than because London and most American cities have one and it sounds all exciting and sexy).

No surprise to see a load of celebs mentioned as candidates. Fits right in with the "high on hype, low on detail" culture that spawns such an idea.

Stick to reading Hello magazine and occasionally shouting "all politicians are the same."

I suppose it would just mean expanding my iron willed yet compassionate rule from an area of rural decay and misery to a similar urban setting.

I would like to make it clear that my appearance in Halo magazine in the 'Recently Defrocked Curates' section of June 1980 was a case of mistaken identity for which there was not a shred of evidence that survived the fire and the case was dismissed out of hand by the Matebeleland District Livestock Commission.
