And my local MP is Chuka Umunna, so no problem recognising him either. I haven't seen him out and about in the constituency much though, although I did see him once on the train. His predecessor, Keith Hill, was a bit more visible locally, even though Labour were in government most of that time.

Lord Mayor, no idea but then it's not a real job, more Dick Whittington and his cat.

@EricTheWeary is/was involved in probabtion or rehabilitation services i remember from a previous comment. he can probably tell you what a total waste of a (human?) life Grayling is.
unfortunately my MP is Tory and well known, but days are numbered as it's a marginal and brexit turning shit-shaped (with further trashing of living standards) will see them soundly ousted.
don't really know about mayor. they seem some sort of anodyne and pointless leftover from the feudal middle ages. but not evil or mercenary, as i think it's a role without significant financial benefit.
they open fetes and villagers clap, as far as i can tell? and wear weird clothes out of trumpton.
MP - absolutely. The incomparable Paul Flynn, lives about 200 yards up the road.
My feedback thread is here.
Not met our mayor but she's also very good - she's a working class Tory with no airs and graces who does a lot for charity and the local community and is no fan of May and co.
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
MP is Dominic Raab the justice secretary. I do recognise him as he's on TV a lot.
Saw the mayor at my kid's school fete. No idea what his name is.
I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to
Not sure how it works on the mainland, but we have different MPs from different parties - e.g. Sinn Fein, DUP, SDLP etc. You can choose who you go to. Most of them will do nothing for you, unless it's coming up to election time and they want your vote.
As far as the Lord Mayor I had to look it up.
It's just something to put on his CV, without even the vaguest pretence of being interested in his constituents.
