Did you know?
Merseyside was formed in
1974 from what was then South West Lancashire. The Merseyside Region consists of
North and South Liverpool, Sefton to the North of Liverpool, Knowsley and St
Helens to the East and the Wirral to the West. Merseyside now has an
approximate population of 1,403 381 with 610 000 households. It is also the
densest populated coastline within the UK.
The move to make Merseyside part of the Liverpool City Region started in 2010,
when the UK Government formed a local enterprise partnership. Interestingly the
2010 United Kingdom's General Election resulted in a large swing to the
Conservative Party, similar to that seen in 1979, the last time a Conservative
opposition had ousted a Labour Government. Soon after,
in 2012, Liverpool became one if the 1st UK
Cities to have an Elected Mayor. The 1st directly elected Mayor of
Liverpool was Labour. Joseph Anderson OBE served from 2012 as the Leader of
Liverpool City Council, until his suspension in November 2020. Then since
1 April 2014, Merseyside, became part of the new
Combined Authority, local area's devolution deal, known as the Liverpool City
Region (LCR). The Metro Mayor, who chairs the LCR, was also a member of
the Labour Party, called Steve Rotheram.
The area, despite common
miss conceptions, it has some of the richest wildlife areas within the UK, that
is home to some of the worlds rarest flora and fauna, both on and off its
coastline.
Liverpool also boosts the highest number of listed buildings outside of London.
This gained it World Heritage Status, but that was lost, due its huge
restoration project that seeks both to preserve the old and build on it to
sustain future requirements, with changes due to global warming, culture and
technology. In fact the areas musical culture and heritage ahead to the
city gaining a UNESCO City of Music title. In was also designated:- 'European Capital Of Culture,'
by the European Union in 2008 Liverpool. This made it the only City within the
UK to have hold this prestigious title.
