  An interesting evening and congratulations to our Mayor (Cllr Sue Jones) for exercising good chairmanship.
  
  Yes Vic was quiet and well behaved...be intertesting to know what Sue said to him as this must be a first.
  
  As has been well documented on this forum the current National Debt will result in the need to obtain revenue from "sell offs", this was already the case with the outgoing government. However as far as Dover is concerned we must have a "Long Term" investment oportunity and not just a "One Off" payment to keep us quiet.
  
  Certainly Charlie has attempted to seek a long term oportunity as well as resolving the fear of many in respect of national security if the Port were to end up in foreign ownership..a point well made by Cllr Hannent.
  
  
  If "The Peoples Port" comes to fruition then to a certain extent the future is partially in our hands. I say partially because there also has to be a will to succeed by ALL political parties at ALL levels.
  
  As Charlie said at the outset it is to look to the future..certainly I, like many older generation, may never see the true realisation but if the cornerstone for future regeneration is in place with the will to deliver what the town needs I shall feel that at least we can leave something to our children/grandchildren.
