AlanShimmin Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 (edited) Just walk away from it. Grass it over and be done with it. Stick a few benches in it and rename it Baker's Folly. It can be a nice spot to sit and also a cautionary tale in the land of the scousers. Edited July 24, 2021 by AlanShimmin 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amadeus Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 There’s nothing really there yet, is there? What’s so expensive about this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we are not paying for that as well? maybe that is where the extra costs have come from, Mr Baker doesn't look like a bluenose though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partly, some of the extra cost is for the Comin box. They get their own helipad and everything. Why they can't just use the undersea monorail like everyone else is beyond me. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have a stab at answering your question ........ Peel Holdings, negotiating with a bunch of toddlers in Government who hold the keys to a sweetshop. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I might rent one of those death scooters and go exploring around there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amadeus Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Jeez these things are proper little death traps aren’t they? Fun though. So, this seems to be the spot going by the pictures on the fence. I obviously can’t go inside but even a few snaps from a public road clearly show there’s nothing there yet. All the urgent money talk sounded like this was almost done but it’s a car park right now, nothing more. What’s going on? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoTail Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Looking at those photos it would be easy to put a stop to spending more money. Just grass over and put a b&q shed on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Johnson Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 The new house should reject the request for more funds and be done with this folly. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peel and their little helpers in DoI, Treasury etc are trying to make sure lots and lots of taxpayers money is irrevocably allocated to this disaster before there is an election after which the new government might be more sceptical of the whole mess. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Onchan Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 It's clear to see from the aerial shot (imagined or real) on the marketing board why Liverpool lost the rights to the UNESCO badge. There's very little in the way of heritage left. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
