The threat of being delisted has hung over Liverpool since

2012

after UNESCO warned that plans for flats and offices would destroy the city's skyline.

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.

Dublin, Ireland did something similar when it built its new Point Theater in its former docklands by the mouth of the Liffey River where it enters Dublin Bay. The city is on the “tentative list”, though.

But of course, we’re talking of the pro-“Palestinian” abomination that declared Rachel’s Tomb in Israel to be a mosque, so all I can say is defund UNESCO utterly.
