The post you are reporting:
Neil, the DPPT offer was never even considered, and now that the DHB bid has been rejected, the Government remains in the same position, namely that the Port will not be privatised.
DHB alone can make any decisions on available options, not the Government.
The Port is not a Government asset. It is owned and run by DHB.
There is nothing that you can do, Neil, to make decisions over the Port, or over Community regeneration stemming from the Port. And if what you claim concerning on-going talks with these, those and the others were true, you would be just doing something that the Government does not recognise.
You do not have any on-going talks with the Government, Neil. The Government is not talking with you on the future of Dover's Port. The letters from the DfT are as clear as clear can be.
