Plans for alcohol to be sold around the clock in an area of Liverpool suffering with high crime and alcohol-related anti-social behaviour have been described as 'outrageous' and 'madness'.
An application has been submitted to Liverpool City Council by Nathiya Varathes and relates to the Everydayz shop on Vauxhall Road. The shop is currently licensed to sell alcohol between the hours of 7am and 11pm each day but the new application is seeking permission to extend that so that alcohol can be sold 24 hours a day, everyday.
The shop's plans have caused a lot of concern for local authorities, who say the area is already being blighted by crime and anti-social behaviour - with a lot of this caused by alcohol-related issues.
