The mayor's office said he had a full agenda with networking opportunities.

A spokesman said the mayor was invited at the expense of the TED organisation as a speaker to share ideas and help change attitudes.

Do as I say, not as I do
Everyone here dislikes him because he's useless ! but not for much longer we voted to get rid of the Mayors having 3 what a complete waste of money.
