  I think people are so disillusioned with how things have gone over years and years perhaps subconsciously they realise that things will never change for the better. It's rather like the old expression "why worry about the things you can't change?".
  It's too late now. Anything that might have been done to improve the area during the last few years when there was any money about to do something have gone now forever. The fact is that there is no money now and nothing can be done in any way to transform Dover.
  What's mad is how buildings have been demolished in order to make way for promised changes but have been left dilapidated making the town look like a set of a zombie movie.
  Even on a smaller scale you only have to see the litter, the dog mess, the general untidiness to know that the decline is permanent. Any new development is confined to the building of new flats and houses. Nothing dynamic really. No vision. No nothing.
  I know people will accuse me of merely being negative and doing nothing to improve things myself. Fine I've got broad shoulders but I'm not the one who promised the earth but delivered little.
  As an aside I must admit I always get a cold shudder when some insist that more should be done to encourage tourists to the area. That just compounds the issue because the state of the town does nothing to encourage people to return.
