Are you like many and don’t understand why Cambridgeshire needs a mayor?
Tomorrow the BBC Tour Bus comes to Market Square in Ely 11 am to help you understand.
Onboard the bus will be lots of information for you to make an informed decision about the Mayoral Candidates, one of which will be put in charge of the £800 million pounds budget that comes with the office.
