I am urging people to sign the petition organised by local suppliers to Southampton's cruise industry to stop Liverpool using taxpayers' money to grow its cruise business. Click HERE for the petition.
On 15th September the Shipping Minister decides whether or not cruise ships will be allowed to start and end their cruises from Liverpool Cruise Terminal, taking advantage of a £20m taxpayer subsidy and allowing them to compete unfairly with Southampton.
If Liverpool is to compete with Southampton it should be on a level playing field and the subsidy should be repaid.
This decision is vitally important as thousands of local jobs depend on our local cruise industry. Sign today! Click HERE for more information.
