UNESCO-Have they given up on Liverpool?






UNESCO MEET IN SEVILLE AND ON THE AGENDA IS LIVERPOOL.




We need another monitoring mission back in Liverpool. Nothing else will do. How can someone in Paris decide from a report in 2006 how Liverpool's World Heritage Site is doing while they have crawled all over it with shoebox flats.

Do Unesco really Care about Liverpool?

I have to be a bit careful popping into other Cities World Heritage problems because it is difficult enough to keep pace with all the political intrigue and vested interets of ours in Liverpool. http://www.ewht.org.uk/Home.aspx

I have today added the above blog to our list because I feel they in Edinburgh are going through similar to what we in Liverpool went through before the Liverpool world heritage site was destroyed. We wish them well in their plight.
Why do they, Liverpool and all UK sites not have World Heritage Committees made up of a cross section of Conservationists.
BATH is also on the UNESCO agenda.
