I pointed out that thousands petitioned, protested and marched against this morally abhorrent arms fair and it should never have been booked.

At last night's Audit Committee, we read this in the Grant Thornton Audit report:
"We note the lack of consultation concerning the hosting of an arms fair met with opposition from members, whereas prior consultation may have forestalled this event being booked."

I tabled further questions to the Cabinet on Friday regarding the investment in the @ACCLiverpool and an ethical booking policy.
Here are the answers.

The disgraced @ACCLiverpool is set to receive a £5m funding boost.
The Council must make this conditional on the promised Ethical Charter being put in place to stop another event like the arms fair bringing shame on our city.

As far as I am concerned, any investment in the ACC should be dependent on it stating publicly that there will be no further Arms Fairs and that it will adopt an ethical booking policy.

This is an abuse of police powers to clamp down on peaceful protest. Shameful.

The arms fair is taking place at the council-owned ACC exhibition centre. Important public spaces should be used for culture and leisure, not the promotion of warfare and destruction.

Well done to everyone protesting the Liverpool Arms Fair today. Companies participating in the fair include Elbit Systems, whose weapons find use in the West Bank and Gaza, and Raytheon whose missiles are used by the Saudi coalition in Yemen.

An event which shames our great city is now protected from legal & legitimate protest by a dispersal order which further adds to the charges which must be levelled against the people who have enabled this to happen.
