Anyone reading this thread will see that you are an apologist for them.
Oh, and being an apologist does not mean you're apologising for them. (Look it up; it's not my job to educate you). wink

This must have been the plaque they were talking about.

Apparently, they are in a locked room on one of the upper floors. Just a matter of locating who has the key to said locked room....

looked up
A person who offers an argument in defence of something controversial:


An apologist is a person who argues in favor of something unpopular.

Early Christian writers (c. 120–220) who defended their faith against critics and recommended their faith to outsiders were called apologists.

But I bet if you asked most folks in Liverpool or Wirral,if it was unpopular that buildings that have been empty for a number of years couldn't be used for a more useful purpose which was most probably what the occupation was pointing out, they'd say it caught folks attention more than any amount of letters to the Globe or Echo would have done.
The fact that there may be damage will have gone against them.
I'd like to see what damage there was, and, if it's just a paint job make the occupationists do it as part of their punishment

I seem to remember you criticising Granny for using click instead of copy & paste.

'Critising'?? Behave yourself!!! The emotions used were indicitive of the intended tone.

Don't forget it was hanging on a wall at one point, apparently?

The occupiers had the keys, or 'lead occupier', if you will. Must have been 100 at least on a ring including keys to the gates in the vault- must have been left in the building?? I don't know.

The main thing is- is that the historic plaque has not and was not stolen as was reported in the mainstream media.

I reckon that clock mechanism was taken away many years ago for repair and never returned.
