Mayors exchange novelty gifts

Boris Johnson, London's new Conservative mayor, has handed his New York counterpart Michael Bloomberg a novelty shirt of the London Underground, as the pair met to discuss the challenges of running a world class city.

The two mayors briefly took in the view from the balcony of City Hall before returning inside to exchange novelty gifts.

Mayor Bloomberg was first to present Mr Johnson with a Tiffany box containing a crystal Big Apple paperweight, before the flamboyant Tory returned the favour with his garish item of clothing.
