Timeline: Liverpool city council's troubles.
(From Guardian Unlimited)
January 2006
The Liverpool council chief executive, Sir David Henshaw, announces he will retire in March. The move follows a high-profile battle for control of the city between Sir David and the council's former leader Mike Storey.
November 2005
The council leader, Mr Storey, resigns after an inquiry by the local government watchdog, the Standards Board, finds he brought the office and local authority into disrepute. Mr Storey had reported himself to the watchdog, pre-empting a threat by Sir David to report him over apparent moves to oust the chief executive. Following the inquiry, councillors tell a local paper Sir David's position is "untenable".
June 2005
Transport secretary Alistair Darling refuses to back Liverpool's plans for a new GBP325m tram system, following a row between Mr Storey and Sir David. Sir David did not share Mr Storey's enthusiasm for the scheme.
