Liverpool Development Update LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE March 2015 Welcome Welcome to the latest edition of Liverpool Development Update. It is has often been said that you can judge how well a city is doing by counting the number of cranes towering above its skyline. Today, at the start of March 2015 there are 17 large cranes on building sites across the City Centre where some £1.13 billion worth of development is currently underway. This level of activity exceeds that which was underway in 2008 (excluding Liverpool ONE), the year of European Capital of Culture which had attracted so much developer interest in Liverpool. Now, some seven years later, that interest is being sustained and built upon even further. In the neighbourhoods, more than £750m worth of development activity is also underway. As the new Alder Hey hospital prepares to open, work has finally begun on a number of schemes we have waited for many years to see. The long-awaited Project Jennifer has begun, with work starting on the new food superstore in the next few months. In nearby Anfield, Liverpool FC has started the expansion of the club’s stadium, while just a couple of miles away, site clearance work is continuing as the £200m rebuilding of Edge Lane Retail Park gets underway. All the above activity, amounting to £1.89 billion, will create around 4000 jobs when all the new or refurbished floorspace is filled. In the meantime, the building work itself is creating several thousand construction jobs. Of the 12 new schools I promised when I became Mayor in 2012, 11 are either built or on site and the last school is currently awaiting planning permission. In the housing sector, more than 4,300 of my target of 5,000 new homes have been built or are currently on site, while the number of derelict and vacant homes brought back into use has now almost achieved double the original target of 1,000 and we now have a new target of another 3,000. We are also actively pursuing absentee owners of vacant homes to encourage them to bring their buildings back to life for families who want to live in them, and have introduced the UK’s first mandatory licensing scheme for private landlords to make sure that their properties are maintained to an acceptable standard. Liverpool is a fantastic city, much loved by the millions of visitors who come here to experience our cultural and retail offer, not to mention the burgeoning conference market with our BT Conference Centre FRONT COVER: and soon-to-open Exhibition Centre, which will attract some of Europe’s biggest trade shows and the ever-increasing number of cruise 2 ships calling in to our cruise liner facility. Last year’s International Festival for Business was a major success; one of its key legacies being 1 3 that Liverpool, the city region and the wider North West are more clearly recognised as excellent places in which to invest.

At present the city has some £1.89 billion as at February 2015 (£m) worth of development activity on site, with some £740 15 million of this taking place outside of the City Centre. 50 By far the greatest element of this new activity is in the health 298 92 sector, with two of the city’s major hospitals currently being rebuilt at a combined cost of £666 million. Another major boom is being witnessed in student accommodation. This also had seen modest growth during the mid 2000s. However, students coming to the city from all 254 over the world have much higher expectations for their temporary city home, and suppliers are rising to the challenge to deliver yet more quality of choice, particularly 706 in and around the City Centre where some £297 million is being invested in the creation of over 4,000 student 22 pods/bedrooms. 157 Over £250 million is being invested in other housing either 87 building new homes or refurbishing existing homes.

With over £520 million of investment due to complete in the City Centre this year, 2015 will see more than double the amount of investment finished than in most previous years. Investors are clearly returning to the city as money becomes available again, and it looks as though some £1.3 billion is likely to be spent over the next three years, creating several thousand jobs within the construction industry. Late 2014 and early 2015 is witnessing a welcome increase of non-student related residential activity commencing or coming forward for planning approval.

    Speke Hall Access Statement Speke Hall is a rare Tudor timber-framed manor house situated just outside Liverpool city centre on the banks of the River Mersey. Restored and brought back to life in the 19th century, it is a unique and beautiful mixture of Tudor simplicity and rich Victorian interiors. Speke Hall, The Walk, Liverpool, Merseyside, L24 1XD T: 0151 427 7231 E: [email protected] Due to the ongoing pandemic, visitors are asked to wear a face covering in all indoor areas and avoid entering a busy indoor space, to help prevent over-crowding. This may cause queues and we apologise for any inconvenience caused. Introduction 1. Speke Hall is situated in scenic grounds that may be accessed by mostly flat path ways. Please be aware, walking on the wider estate involves some slopes and uneven surfaces. The ground floor of the Hall is accessible with mainly flat surfaces however there are some cobbles near the Stable Tea Room and the Inner Courtyard. 2. Mobile phone reception is reasonable across the wider estate, however near and inside the Hall the signal is poor for most networks. 3. Assistance dogs are welcome throughout the property and in the Hall. There is a water bowl outside the main restaurant at Home Farm which is regularly filled or can be refilled on request. There are some areas of the site that are not suitable for dog walking including the Maze, the Childe of Hale Trail, play areas, the Moat Garden and the Hall. Maps are available at Visitor Reception. Dogs should not be left in cars on a hot day and our Ranger takes regular patrols to ensure the welfare of animals during such weather.

    PATH DEPENDENT AND RISK AVERSE: IS RETAIL PLANNING INHIBITED BY A CULTURE OF FEAR?

It has not been previously submitted, in part or completely, to any university or institution for any degree, diploma, or other qualification. Signed: ______________________________________________________________ Date: _________________________________________________________________ iii Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template iv Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template ABSTRACT As new digital technology fundamentally changes the way people shop, retail firms are increasingly seeking to optimise their store portfolios so that they effectively support the provision of an omni-channel retail offer, which is leading to the decline of many traditional retail spaces. This thesis seeks to explore this issue, by considering why, in the face of such profound structural changes in retailing, the prevailing response of planners has been to reemphasise support for „town-centre-first‟, despite the fact that such an approach appears fundamentally misaligned with the issues that are driving decline today. Utilising a mixed methods approach, involving a detailed historical analysis of the evolution of retail planning in England and in-depth interviews with planners, this thesis seeks to understand why it is that town-centre-first continues to pervade as a strategic approach in retail planning.

  • Race and Radicalisation EJ Peatfield University of Liverpool
    Race and Radicalisation E J Peatfield University of Liverpool Race and Radicalisation: Examining Perceptions Of Counter-Radicalisation Policy Amongst Minority Groups in Liverpool 8 and 24. Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Elizabeth-Jane Peatfield February 2017 1 | Page Race and Radicalisation E J Peatfield University of Liverpool Abstract This thesis critically analyses the UK Government’s current counter-radicalisation policy, focusing in particular on groups presented as vulnerable or susceptible to the drivers of radicalisation outlined within the counter-radicalisation policy Prevent (2011). Although there have been a number of studies looking at the effect of counter-radicalisation policy on Muslim communities in Britain, this study is unique in its kind, as it examines the impact of counter-radicalisation policy on non- Muslim minorities. This work draws attention to the linking of terrorism to socio- economically marginalised groups and the concomitant gaze of surveillance or suspicion directed towards those considered risky. Based on the evidence gathered, it is argued that the negative framing of communities based on race and class has linked them to the risk of radicalisation through the construction of counter- radicalisation drivers and vulnerabilities. To explore the intersectionality of race and class with assumptions embedded in counter-radicalisation policy, the research employed both quantitative and qualitative methodology to examinee minority communities in two areas of Liverpool. The research sought to gauge how much non-Muslim minorities knew about Prevent (2011) and the drivers identified in the document, alongside whether they believed they had been affected by counter-radicalisation/terrorism policy.
