From Siberia to Seaforth: How melting ice caps could pay off for Liverpool’s port
Plus: Four arrests at Signature Living and spiralling arena costs
Dear members — welcome to a rare double bill edition of The Post. Today we’ve got stories from both Lisa and Mr Liverpool himself, David Lloyd. Lisa’s story is about the M&S Bank Arena: a building opened with fanfare during the city’s Capital of Culture celebrations, but which has since been lacking a bit of TLC. So much so that in 2021, it was revealed that over £5m was needed to get everything up to scratch. Now, in 2024, the costs have doubled.
