Of course in London we didn't have the election, as the view was that we elect a Mayor who chooses the Chief Constables, as the Met Police region maps to Boris's electorate.
So not only do we have different rules in different countries in the UK, but different rules within England. Bristol gets a Mayor, but he can't control the Avon Police Constable.
Like the council elections, were London votes much less frequently than the rest of the UK, its a mess.
