Talk:Huyton

message: The Huyton internment camp, one of the biggest in the country, was brought into operation in 1940 to hold German, Austrian and Italian men under suspicion of spying or sabotage. The article says "the site is now known as the CF Mott, which is basically forest area, although in recent years houses have been built on much of it". I am almost certain that this is incorrect. The camp was formed around several streets of new, empty council houses and flats, and then made secure with high barbed wire fencing. Initally the camp was only meant to hold the internees until they could be shipped to the Isle of Man. However, largely in response to the torpedoing of the transport ship: The Arandora Star, with the loss of nearly 700 people, the deportations ended. To the best of my knowledge, the camp was sited in and around what became known as the 'Bluebell estate' and many of the streets were given names of the great battles of the 1939 - 45 War.

message: Why do the overlords of this page repeatedly remove valid contributions to it?
I've have edited in correct information on several occasions only to have it removed.  This makes a joke of the wiki concept.
I will make a complaint should it happen again.
Please do not maintain pages in such a way that means they only exist to boost your ego, or because you find it inconvenient to have your copy altered or embelished in a productive manner.
Thank You.

message: Hitler was one of the Germans detained in Huyton during World World II, as we all know, he then went on to play for Liverpool and amazingly, England.
I am astonished that this fact has been left out of the Huyton page.  I will write a section and upload  it later.
Many thanks,
Yazooman

thread_title:  NPOV dispute 

message: I would like to add this as I was the first person to leave an entry in this page, I am from huyton born and bred, when I grew up in the sixties my family had moved from Kensington and Everton etc, they never distinguished between huyton/Liverpool and they are scousers through and through I mean how can you tell one area from the other when the streets are gelled together? I was always told huyton is liverpool and we even paid rent to liverpool council for our new estate before knowsley was established. We dont need any imaginary line to tell us who we are, the city had its heart and people ripped out of it years ago and a lot of true scousers live in these schizophrenic areas. 82.163.114.22 (talk)
:i see your point mate, huytonians have always been as scouse as anyone. but i think the thing about it is that in recent years Liverpool the city has become much more cosmopolitan, and the true working class council estate scouse experience is more prevalent in the outskirts, primarily areas like huyton or bootle etc.
:in this respect, there is a separation to be had between liverpool and huyton. but i'd argue its in the opposite direction of what you're saying

thread_title: Liverpool, no such controversy??

message: Whether Liverpool City Council owns any of the estates isn't relevant to the administrative district. One thing that isn't clear is whether some of the areas are considered part of Huyton, and whether anything considered to be part of Huyton is within the boundary of Liverpool. Fincham seems to be divided between Liverpool and Knowsley and it's unclear whether it's part of Huyton or West Derby. Peter E. James (talk) 19:35, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
