LONDONERS like to think they live in one of the world’s great cities. London may be great, but, formally, it is no city. Lacking a royal charter, it is merely an administrative division composed of 33 local authorities and controlled by the Greater London Authority. ロンドンは正式にはcityではない。 One new city will be created in Britain this year to mark the queen’s diamond jubilee.
