  I do have a lot to say Sid, but as no one now listens, there is no reason for me to do so.
  
  I am just an individual like every one else.
  
  I put myself up for District Council in May 2003 because I wanted the Portfolio for Tourism; I had lots of ideas and most of them didn't require any, or hardly, any funding.
  
  I did get elected, but then found that there wasn't a Portfolio for Tourism - but no one had told me !
  
  I still have lots of ideas as to what to do for the Town, but no one is going to take them seriously now (did they ever ?) as I have had the opportunity and the voice, taken away from me.
  
  A tourism strategy for Dover to be completed; a Dover Town Action Plan half way through; Group Travel, all designed to improve the lot of Dover and the residents and visitors here.
  
  Having the respect of local businesses (apart from one) helped a lot too.
  
  The original list of projects and initiatives were with DTC and the Mayor - there were 23 of them; I can't imagine what the current incumbant at DBS is now doing on a daily basis - according to many local businesses, not talking to them is one.
  
  By the Chamber not allowing the necessary oxygen of publicity for DBS, they are slowly (maybe not so slowly) killing it and they are doing it with their eyes wide open.
