    Why was Liverpool a World Heritage Site to begin with?

    What changed to get them removed from the list?

    Some stews are good and tasty. I miss my mom's stew. Why is scouser derogatory? Most everybody likes a good stew. I would prefer my mom's stew (probably an Irish origin stew) against anything grandma made from her Midlands memory and upbringing.

    What is a brass bank? That doesn't translate well on this side of the pond.

    What is wrong with Real Ale? Not knowing all the subtleties of English Ales, and not being a beer drinker, I only know basics of the process and types. I have lots of Hardy and Hansen Kimberley Ales interest, for other reasons. Are these "Real Ales" or some other subset?

    The reason that the city was a world heritage site is because of its waterfront architecture. Everton F.C. is going to build a new soccer stadium that will allegedly destroy the cityscape aesthetics.

    Recent and ongoing changes to her 19th-century docks mainly.

    There are people in England who would rather be a Paki than a scouser.
