🇬🇧 Liverpool is to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the loss of the Cunard-owned and Liverpool-registered Atlantic Conveyor in the Falklands conflict, in which 12 people died.

The commemoration takes place on Wednesday May 25 and will also recognise the wider role of the Merchant Navy in the South Atlantic Task Force.

🏆 A Liverpool victory parade will take place in the city on Sunday 29 May.

The 13.5km victory route, the same as the 2019 parade, will start at Allerton Maze in the south of the city and finish at Blundell Street in the Baltic Triangle.

With the FA Cup and League Cup already secured by the Reds, the parade will go ahead regardless of the result in the Champions League final and where the Premier League title ends up.
