  As someone who uses Dover Priory pretty much every day - the improvements to date are good, the staff helpful and friendly and overall the service, including the trains themselves, good.
  
  Yes it is disappointing that work has not continued on the second phase, giving us a new concourse, steps to Folkestone Road, taxi rank, bus stops and link to the Priory steps.
  
  Regarding the High Speed train all the information is that it will indeed start at Dover, though Folkestone West will be an important stop due to the availability of land for car parking. I suspect what will happen is lots of people will drive to Westenhanger get the "classic" service to Ashford and then make a choice as to the onward service they use. To a degree this is happening already due to charging at Sandling and Folkestone West.
  
  As for the local ne'rdowells this is a job for both the Kent & Transport Police to sort out - perhaps a couple of PCSO's from the two forces to back up the existing security chaps might help?
