Graeme Wall remarked:

I had an idea they were already considering as far as the M25.

There's a certain amount of resistance to that from communities inside
the M25 that do not consider themselves part of London.


There's resistance from a lot of people! (See also colloquial
conflation of GLA/M25).


The difference being that the Mayor's writ does not extend as far as
peoples perceptions of London.


Those perceptions including "The GLA", "Inside the M25", "Patrolled by the
Met Police",


now coincides with the GLA

agreed it didn't 30 years (or whatever) ago
