McCartney Times

With UK chancellor Rishi Sunak planning to invest £2 million into a new museum dedicated to The Beatles in their hometown of Liverpool, Paul McCartney is sharing whether or not he wants one. The former Beatles bandmate has said that while he’s “happy they’re recognizing that it’s a tourist attraction,” he believes the money is best spent elsewhere.

The news was announced by Sunak last month, alongside plans to invest £850 million to protect museums, galleries, libraries, and local culture across the United Kingdom. However, the £2 million allocated to a Beatles museum was only toward allowing the Liverpool City Region to “develop a business case,” rather than actually build the museum. Additionally, Liverpool already has two museums dedicated to the band.

McCartney made his own comments about the plans while he was promoting his new book, The Lyrics, at Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall on Friday night (November 5). Journalist Samira Ahmed prompted McCartney by asking for his thoughts on the plans.
