After serving as a mayor for three consecutive terms in the New York City, Michael Rubens Bloomberg, an American business magnate and politician, may now don the same hat again, but in London.
The former mayor is being sought by Conservatives across the pond to run in the London mayoral election next year, reported New York Post.
Friends of Bloomeberg said that he was considering running as the Tory candidate as the city of 8.5 million prepares to elect Boris Johnson's successor in May 2016.
Reports said that Steve Hilton, a trusted adviser to British Prime Minister David Cameron, was urging Bloomberg to contest the elections in London.
Hilton said that it would be "an incredible coup" for London if Bloomberg could be persuaded to run for mayor in the city. He added that London needed his kind of "pragmatic, problem-solving leadership."
Both of Bloomberg's daughters are British citizens and also, his ex-wife Susan Brown was born in the UK.
