Seriously, is this office required these days?

It does seem largely ceremonial nowadays.

I remember not long ago the Coventry Mayor always being in the papers. Everyone knew his/her name and they seemed to wield considerable power. These days it's all about the leader of the council. I'll bet most in Coventry couldn't name the Mayor.
