  Gov. needs money in the coffers; even Mr. Elphicke said at 10 Downing St., on presenting the people's port package, that it would bring 200 million creased oncers into the Treasury.
  
  In so doing, he became an advocate for the Treasury cashing in on a Port transaction, and it seems that there's little the p/p can do now to put the genius back in the bottle!
  
  Sorry folks, you should have listened to what some of us were saying so earnestly in the past, when we warned against this. Gov. is hardly likely now to turn down the idea of pouring cash in the coffers from the Port, after both DHB and p/p made such proposals.
  
  The difference is, that DHB's plan offers much more oncers than the p/p plan.
  Little you can do now to retract your offer to Gov. You should have folowed our advice and said no to any form of Port-sale!
  
  Or do you think now that Gov. will turn the offer down and say: "oh alright then, let's not cash in on the Port of Dover"?
  The very parish pole states that 25% of people in Dover agree that the coffers should cash a heap of money from a Port-transaction.
  
  So all Gov. need do now is choose which offer will bring in more cash, and that is DHB's! You should have followed some sound advice and kept your hands off the parish pole.
  
  A bit late now to complain!
  Sorry Peter!
