  I am incredibly confused with what is happening in Dover. The support to preserve the Goodwin Sands is certainly not confined to Deal as I know of several political and non political organistations in Thanet and I personally belong to one in Canterbury which are very concerned about the idea of dredging.
  
  But my confusion stems from these claims of job loses etc? The cargo docks are still going to be built but the shops and cafes will not unless the Port of Dover can do it on the cheap (ie not actually buy the sand but take it from a war grave/pending Marine Conservation Zone).
  
  Dover struggles to support a high street and soon will have a new shopping complex, so where are all these people going to come from to use all these new shops/cafes at the cargo port? It certainly won't be people from Deal who are being alienated and I think many others in Kent would follow their example.
