The post you are reporting:
Mr Vic, the DHB private equity sale proposal was rejected a year ago.
I have heard it said quite plainly in London and elsewhere that, as a Trust Port, Dover could be retained as a Trust port for now ready to be sold under the Ports Act in a few years time when all the fuss has died down. DPPT have been continuing to work hard to ensure that this eventuality does not transpire and that the port is transferred to the ownership of its community.
If you want the port sold to remote private equity Mr Vic, then keep banging on about "Royal Port" and "Charter" and DHB, because so long as the port remains a Public Corporation, constituted, owned, structured and governed in the way that it currently is, it can (and will) be sold.
The Blues are not the only party that talk about implementing the DPPT model, senior politicians from all parties are keen to see our ownership, governance and structural model for Dover implemented. The Blues have the power to do it now and that is precisely what the Minister is looking into now.
We wait and see what comes forward from the Minister for us to vote on.
