The London Mayoralty: What has it achieved?
Since its inception, there have been three very distinct personalities who have assumed the role of London Mayor. The podcast will examine the three London mayors in turn, examining their achievements individually and collectively. We'll also be examining the strengths and pitfalls of London’s Governance structure.
For this episode, we are joined by Dr. Jack Brown, a Lecturer in London Studies and London Partnerships Director in the Department of Political Economy at King’s College London. He is also Research Manager at the Centre for London, the capital’s dedicated think tank. Previously, Jack was the first ever Researcher in Residence at No. 10 Downing Street, and is currently writing a book on the history of the London Mayoralty to date.
