The post you are reporting:
No, I'm not. We have - all towns and parishes have - local memorials for fallen service members, in particular for those of the two WWs, and to a far lesser extent for those of previous wars (although the latter half of the 19th century is well represented in local memorials inside some churches).
The proposed WW memorial, furthermore, has been presented as a means of attracting wealth to Dover, by way of visitors - shops/restaurants etc., which I find in itself unbecoming for a memorial, which should be free of lucre.
And such memorial, if it were to attract even a fraction of the proposed masses of people from all over Britain and the Commonwealth, would utterly scar the area - a nature reserve among other categories of protection - with traffic and pollution, altering and changing its current peaceful nature.
