On the left is the birthplace of Richard Starkey, better known as Ringo Starr, drummer for the Beatles.
It's in the impoverished Dingle district of Liverpool and the City Council there has deemed Ringo's birthplace as of "no historical significance."
True, the future Ringo and family moved out three months after he was born in that row house. But it is his birthplace.
The Liverpool City Council must be populated by morons. In 1973, this same political body approved the demolition of the Cavern Club, the legendary rock venue where the Beatles evolved from a mid-tier club band into the greatest rock and roll band ever.
