    Alexander please read my post 201 and the links in it and my post 216 explaining it to Jimmy.

    The port is worth what someone will pay for it.
    As a commercial business, sales values are worked out on multiples of profit or sometimes turnover - this sale is a valued at a 20 times multiple of the annual profit of the port, namely £20m which suggests the investors will break even after 20 years which in my view and experience is a fair value for this business. The underlying land values are irrelevant in terms of the business sale and only become relevant if the business sells land in the 10 years after the sale when the government charges an additional levy, as detailed in the Ports Act.

    If you have not taken the time to understand the governing legislation, it is no wonder you do not want to discuss your representations to HMG
