Totally agree. The possible corruption investigation very harmful, but nothing like as bad as the militant 80s. The city is also in a stronger place to come through these problems. So things will pause but soon recover. Covid, loss of EU funding and the central Government policy (seeming to favour their new red wall seats in Teesside and the North eEast) are bigger threats.

Great article Chris! Liverpool won’t slide back into an 1980s decline as a result of the recent news but the city does need to lead by example and show it has rooted out corruption and bad practices otherwise it will turn major investors off doing business here.
