There is so much ignorance being displayed on this thread, and so many posters who misunderstand Charlie's proposition that I am beginning to despair of most of you.
The formal people's bid for the port goes to Downing St at 11am tomorrow (Monday). If lots of you object to that, be there with your banners.
Even the late unlamented Labour government wanted to sell the port. Keeping it as a Trust port unable to borrow to finance expansion would condemn Dover to another 50 years of stagnation. Allowing it to be sold off to private foreign interests would do the same and we would not see the Western docks developed during our lifetime.
I urge all of you to make the effort to find out what the Peoples' Port is all about and to stop putting out disinformation and party-political jibes until you have. You may just be surprised.
