    The Dover Express is not a patch on what it used to be when we had a number of local reporters and the excellent Dubris column (I wonder where they got all their info from? ). In fact the only stuff worth reading is the occasional half page from non-journalists such as Gareth Doodes the Head of Dover College.

    East Kent Mercury still hanging on in there and actually doing some decent local coverage though occasionally plumbing the depths with a full page on that octogenarian local clergyman and his young Romanian 'husband' and their latest appearance on Jeremy Kyle. Apparently it sells papers.



    There are no scribes covering Dover and Folkestone only advertising staff. Any local news is sent in by voluntary organisations or the likes of Mr Doodes and someone from an office in Kent then adds it to the paper, I would think this is the same all over the county. The Mercury still has Sam Lennon when he is fit.
