As reported in the paper this morning Charlie is suggesting we should apply for City status.
I found the vox-pop done by the Express rather disappointing as it seemed most of those asked about it simply 'did not get it'.
They correctly said that Dover needs more investment (the size comment has no relevance), but one of the reasons for Dover going for City status is to get national attention in order to help attract investment. To suggest the need 'to get investment' before going for City status simply shows, as I said, they 'do not get it'. Perhaps the interviewer did not explain it well enough.
Good luck to Charlie with this. Going for it does not cost and anything is worth trying. Dover needs something different and extra to help turn it around and, who knows....
