This blog is temporarily unavailable but the fight goes on.

According to BBC News, Merseyside police have apparently been called in and are working with the Crown Prosecution Service.

Liverpool City Council, has so far declined to comment on the sites disappearance, although the site had been previously blocked from the council's IT systems.
