The post you are reporting:
Furthermore, whilst the DfT could raise a toll for foreign registered vehicles using UK roads, all attempts by local government and individual port authorities to raise such a toll in this country have been ruled against in the courts. I don't rule it out, it has been ruled out as a practical short/medium term consideration by our courts and I've said this many times before.
From what I've seen and read of your representation so far, it is none of the things that you claim for it. It is your view and you hold it to be true - good for you. But your numbers have not been rigourously tested and just simply, so far, they do not appear to stack up. You appear to have insufficient facts at your disposal to be able to produce anything remotely acccurate when it comes to affordability and applicability of the proposals that you have put forward in your representation.
The DPPT business plan and our numbers have been tested independently of DPPT and they do stack up - you don't believe it, that's fine, that is what you believe, (the comment that was here was unworthy and a bit of a cheap shot based on an impression formed after reading posts elsewhere on the forum from May this year and posts on blogs that are similar, but not the same, to Alexander's elsewhere on the interweb. I have, accordingly redacted it). Just because you believe it, doesn't make it true and one should not go around stating personal beliefs as if they are fact.
Just as an example of your thinking, do you know how much a Town Wall street tunnel would cost? DPPT do. Do you know how the money to construct such a tunnel might be raised (you think you do, but the way in which you say it can be done? - well it can't be done that way)? DPPT have looked at it and have a pretty good idea how it could be achieved. Do you know how long it would take to deliver such a project? I doubt it, but I'll let you take a stab at it. DPPT have worked a timescale on it as well (and it isn't quick).
Another one: How many times have I told you that Intermodal connections are vital to all modern ports if they are to grow and flourish in the future? How many times have you been told that DPPT, if successful, will conduct a full review of the port masterplan and modify it so that it meets the trade and traffic requirements of the next 30 years and that such a review will include the need for intermodal connectivity. For goodness sake Alexander, despite being told how important intermodal connections are to the modern successful port and that they therefore have a place in DPPT's plans for the future of the port of Dover many, many times, you still trot out the same old rubbish time and time again about you being the only person in the world who has thought about or promoted an intermodal connection for the port of Dover.
Intermodality has been important in port design and development for a long time Alexander and I've been in the business of delivering port facilities and developing operations at ports for quite a while too, you didn't come up with the idea of rail connectivity for ports or for Dover, it is no more your idea than it would be my idea, if anyone could claim such an idea for themselves, it would be Brunel. Not you, me, or anyone else alive today.
