Metro mayors and city mayors are now among some of the most recognisable faces in English politics. RaynerSkyNews takes a look at why mayors matter 👉
Ben Houchen's election as the first mayor of the Tees Valley in 2017 was a significant moment - a 30 year-old Conservative local councillor had won high-profile public office in Labour's traditional industrial heartland.Now all eyes are on whether Mr Houchen is able to retain his position as poster boy of the new Conservative popularity in the North East.
A significantly increased turnout makes the likely result more difficult to predict, but the expectation of many analysts is that Mr Houchen will win re-election.There are a record-breaking 20 candidates standing to take control of City Hall in these elections. The favourite to take charge of the West Yorkshire Combined authority is Tracy Brabin - the current Labour MP for Batley and Spen.
If things are going wrong for Sir Keir Starmer around the rest of the country, the wait for confirmation of a victory in West Yorkshire could be a nervous one.The Bristol city mayoral election is about who will lead the city council, rather than the regional area. What impact could this confusion, or lack of awareness about the role, have on the vote for West of England mayor?
