Plans for Everton football club's new stadium on part of the former docks were approved earlier this year despite objections from conservation bodies.
It may have come as a surprise that they were delisted but it certainly wasn't a surprise that UNESCO was concerned about development plans.
We should pull out the Dresden status of a UNESCO site being deleted and how it came to occur.
There was a insider crew from Dresden who pushed for years to get Dresden the sacred status. Things were fine....up to the point where a couple of years passed and the city council wanted a new bridge to lessen traffic problems.
The insider crew demanded to be part of the approval process....the city council said ‘no’. This immediately started a ‘payback’ situation. The new bridge was built, and shortly after that, the deletion occurred. Did anyone really notice the loss of the UNESCO status? No.
This whole UNESCO thing is about building another approval authority, and getting UNESCO approvers bribes/gifts.
Can’t do it but if someone comes up with before and after pics of skyline would help
***world heritage status***
What a lame name for communism.
That’ll show those Scousers...
UNESCO is racist. They took this action after new funding for plans to redevelop Liverpool’s International Slavery Museum were announced.
World Heritage status = give lots and lots of money to UNESCO.
It’s a scam.
Who gives a shit what UNESCO thinks???
It’s just another batch of self-righteous self-appointed “international experts”.
The english should have held onto the squalor to keep the title....
