Vic, the query about the 200 or 400 million pounds is that no-one seems to understand whether Charlie proposes the Port be indebted for 200 or 400 million pounds. Both figures have cropped up.
Even Peter doesn't seem to know, for all that I asked him.
Keith is also curious about it.
Charlie's proposal seems to be presented in simple-simon terms, but it is in the small writing that one can detect the potential dangers. Such as: what would the creditors do if a rate was not paid on time?
Or: What would happen if a Sealink ferry conked out after arriving in Dover, and refused to budge until a RN frigate managed to tow it back out to sea?
Who would be liable for the costs and interrupted sevice?
Look out for the small print in Charlie's 'people's port' package!
