Last night saw the annual mayor making ceremony in Peterborough, with councillors choosing the city’s First Citizen for the next 12 months.

Conservative councillor Gul Nawaz was chosen after a fractious vote where he was challenged for the role by Labour’s Cllr Darren Fower. Cllr Diane Lamb was chosen as deputy mayor, also after a vote. PT photographer David Lowndes captured the meeting.
