> When normal people talk about a city, they're talking about an urban area under the jurisdiction of a mayor and city council. Normal people where? London has only had a mayor since 2000. Each borough has its own council, there is no London council. You don't know what you're talking about and you're projecting (North) American ideas onto other countries. > so when people talk about a city called London it's safe to assume they mean the 32 boroughs. Except it's not. Colloquially, some borough are not considered to be in London. Bromley, for example.
