But wheer did dee all start? I know they sent the ships weer's far away like. But share the secret of surprise.

@@therespectedlex9794 huh? Where did Liverpool all start? It was the vikings that founded it and used it as a hub to go back n forth to Ireland. If I remember right they arrived in Liverpool in 900ad

@@jamesmaddison4546 Meant to have been Romans at least before that. But I mean, even with the Irish, it's like something they invented too much to agitate.

A few weeks back the UKs *first* battery electric hybrid trains were introduced on Liverpool's Merseyrail metro.

Yes.

pity they didn't keep the overhead railway..what a tourist thing that would have been.

@@peterwhitaker4038 You’re not wrong there Peter with all the Cruse liners visiting Liverpool , pre and post Pandemic , I have a framed original steel advertising board of the Overhead Railway . But as you said it would be an excellent tourist venture if it was still there or if someone rebuilt a section of it along the Mersey waterfront .

'eye saw' ?

Lets not forget...The Day Churchill sent gunships up the Mersey and aimed them on the city. This day in 1911. The 1911 Liverpool general transport strike, also known as the great transport workers' strike, involved dockers, railway workers and sailors, as well people from other trades.

he never said port sunlight was in Liverpool, he said it was on the mersey. we don't have to be so accurate to draw a line because it's all Merseyside with Liverpool at the Hub.

it is more or less a suburb imagine if they had of called the county Greater Liverpool instead of merseyside things would be different now! it should all be Liverpool all inclusive one big city! and if you loved Liverpool as much as me you'd want it to be bigger as well

Very true.... before these restrictions - we took a 4 night break at the 'Holiday Inn' - Albert dock and everyone we met were so welcoming warm and friendly.. it was a pleasure to be in such a great city.

@@adamsmallwood9541 Scouse? The same as _Cockney._ The working class of their respected cities.

😂😂😂

@@scouser2010ify what you don't like Beatles?

Yet the Albert Dock is only a small docks.

When I left school my first job was in Paton Calvert's facing the Meccano. In my dinner hour I asked about getting a job in the Meccano but the wages were just the same so I stayed put. But there were thousands of people working in the Edge Lane area at the time. Meccano, Paton Calvert's, Robinson Willey, Plessey's, Lucas motors the fruit market , Crawford's biscuits Pecks, Littlewoods, and Crosville motors. Many thousands all clocking off at almost the same time.

It is. But the council chose to overlook it as people think of the Beatles rather than James Penny

I know of no one who ever called it Paddy's Wigwam. No one. Someone wrote that as joke in a paper once and then outsiders repeat it.

It's our secret treasure on the Wirral.

I know as I was born in Birkenhead and my Auntie Nelly, who worked for Levers all her life, lived in Port Sunlight. Lovely place but I can't understand why it was featured on a programme about Liverpool. Perhaps the presenter wanted to show off about his knowledge of soap.

@@henrygingercat The Wirral is now part of the Liverpool City Region.

@@paulrimmer2853 I know most of it was dragged reluctantly into Merseyside in 1974 but I've never heard of the Liverpool City Region. No wish to knock Liverpool, a city I love, but the Wirral aint part of it - ask anyone from Heswall.

However the original Lever Brothers was in Liverpool when Lord Lever moved to the area from Bolton.

Capital of the world hehe

Manchester would disagree but that rivalry will always exist haha

@@BurgundySorcerer Manchester has the blessing of Whitehall who have poured a fortune into that rather dowdy city. They were running high-speed rail (HS2) directly into Manchester via an obscene in cost via a 10 mile tunnel, yet ignored Liverpool. Thank the Lord HS2 was ditched.

@@storiesreadaloud5635 nothing as ignorant as an Englishman talking about their pre WW1 history

Why not?

They mentioned it right at the start.

11 minutes in is about the slave trade...

@Liverpool 101 it's crap face the truth

@Liverpool 101 Liverpool has more poorer parts that most cities

@Liverpool 101 you fool there are other results showing Liverpool as 4th or 2nd most deprived

@Liverpool 101 you made sure you didn't include that didn't you

I like lots of cities in England but I can't believe how depressing and ugly most of the areas in Liverpool actually are most of the areas are in the north of Liverpool with a few also in the south of Liverpool. Some articles about deprivation are about either health or low income but doesn't factor in the areas itself more about people's living condition. I can assure you Hackney in East London is miles better than pretty much most of Liverpool's areas and it's not so bland and depressing.

Yes Liverpool was built on the slave trade but you can't pretend Manchester wasn't too. Manchester was nicknamed 'Cottonopolis', it's profits and prosperity were inextricably linked to slavery and the slave economy. You can't boil it down to just the places that had ships. Also Liverpool had abolitionists too, like William Roscoe to name a prominent figure.

The above comment explains it well. But every affluent and important city in the UK expanded due to the profits of slavery. Few are exempt. It’s a dark part of history but something we must learn to accept.

There were more white slaves in Africa than black slaves in America. What's your point?

We have a slavery museum on the Albert Dock. We certainly don't tolerate racism no more la

"Plundered the world" !🤣🤣🤣. Dublin was the slave trade centre of northern Europe for nearly three centuries.

While giving a fair society, the rule of law and a democratic infrastructure. Liverpool`s link to slavery was only the ship owners, Slavery was already a worldwide commodity for centuries before, so the UKs role was just normal trade, then the UK was the first to ban slavery and its shipping out slaves from Africa. If you actually visit Liverpool, its part in the slave trade is all documented and on public display in the museum at the Albert Dock, so how is a public display not telling the truth?.

Irishmade, you must stop making things up. If there was any plunder the Irish were clearly a big part of it.

No.

No. Actually

@Jonah Whale lol

Mostly Irish
