It's a pity that a sane principle is not being taken into consideration:
European countries generally have a motorway toll, Britain doesn't.
A port toll on passing traffic would to an extent make up for this, and would therefore be in line with European countries.
A part of the toll would go to local administration (KCC, DDC, DTC).
Dover's financial crisis would be solved.
The same would apply to the Channel Tunnel, with benefits for Shepway, and to all British ports.
We're losing out heavily, every day. I estimate Dover Port could earn 500,000 pounds a day on an adequate port toll.
