Statement for #MerseyHour 31/5/25
Written piece called 'My Front Door' about/questioning madness of #LiverpoolParade incident Monday. Specifically how close to home it was (100 yards from our @Play2AllUK base.
Writing's how I deal with things but won't share for now.✌️❤️ to all

[#MERSEYHOUR - Saturdays 1-2pm @MerseyHour]

Following #TouristTax debate on #MerseyHour we`ve now New #Liverpool #PARKING Charges & Rules with no 60% Rises & no Free Nightime Stays.
#Poll
1) Is this an ideal way for @lpoolcouncil to raise revenue? or
2) Another short sighted 'coffin nail' for our economy?
12hrs pls share

[Stand In UK @StandInUK]

Are Parking rises of 60% along with no Free night stays killing our night economy? #Liverpool
