    Moleman

    		The answer is the Lord Mayor of London. Quirky, but true.

    It was my understanding that when a nation such as Great Britain, Canada, Australia or Japan has a Monarch as Head of State, then that country's Head of Government is referred to as a Prime Minister. I recently learned that Spain has a King and a President. Why?

    In England (Great Britain/the United Kingdom) the reigns of the monarchs are divided up into regnal years, numbered and starting on the date of their accession. Which monarch had regnal years that started on eleven different calendar dates, and why was this?

    I have just read a book which said that the remains of a late Australian prime minister was found in the stomach of a great white shark. Who was the unfortunate prime minister?
