    One of my photography students started a business as a professional in social photography when he took early retirement from his first career.

    He wrote in a magazine article about the problems of running a business in Dover - paraphrasing him, if you stick a pin in the centre of Dover and draw a circle within 20 miles around that point, 75% of your potential customers within that circle have got gills and eat lugworms.

    So the port is vital for making up that deficiency. I have no experience of working there but others have explained how the changes in working practices have led to many ferry workers taking their wages to spend away from this area to where they live, and the peoples port plan seems to me a good way to redress this problem and get some of the port profits back into the town and district.
