Is this a step towards UK booting the monarchy and becoming a republic?

No.

Does he not release that more than 50% of people don't live in areas that have mayors? Can we just have the portion of income tax that he going to allocate to Mayor's to spend back as a discount?

Whilst I completely agree that we need to get rid of the monarchy - one family has claimed to have rights over the rest of us granted to them by a fictional god for long enough. I can't see how it has any relevance to Mayors?
