    I have like most of you just got in my post box the letter being send out by the D.H.B.
    It is first saying it is a Deal -Based protest ,that is very untrue many like my self live in Dover and born in Dover ,say go on to say it will cost Dover 100s of jobs, again I do not think they are right .And Dover will get its new marina They are trying to put the frighten on the public of Dover I hope that does not work.
    Lets look at the record of jobs in the pass of the D.H.B. it has taken away 100s if not more jobs of our local workforce and alot of them were very skilled men and they did not think of Dover then.Do not take any notice of what they are putting out,if the project does not get done,it was because the D,H,B, got their costing wrong in the first place and because of that they are trying to put the blame on to the public that like myself do not want anymore sand taken from the Good win. There are many other ways of getting the sand ,but sand need not be used anyway.
    They did not think that the public would protest in the way they have because in the pass they and other companys have taken millions of tons of sand away without any protest or very little of it ,but does that make alright now then to take even more of it? well it is a very BIG NO TO THAT . There are 100,s if not more of the public of Dover that did not want to see the work done anyway and wanted it to stay as it was,I must say I was not one of them I supported the regeneration of the port and still do ,and I am a very old Dovorian but I coud see that the port has to move with the times ,but it can be done without taking away a war grave and home to alot of fish and other wildlife that live and need the sand bank .and I can see why the public of Deal are up in arms about it ,just aske the fishing boat owners what it will do to the fishing stock. And it is not a tiny amount of sand as their is saying it is over 2million tons add that to what they have already taken it is a lot.So please support the Protest in any way you can.And have yet to tell us where all the new jobs are coming from.When all the work is done where will there be a need for the 100,s of new jobs they are forcasting about now.And if some do come will they be part-time ? how many will be full-time? will any of them need skills etc ? they can not tell us that because they do not know themself ,s .And lets face it they are taking away some very nice land marks in the name of regeneration .
    Thank you.
