Celebrity Protests Against Privatisation of Dover Port
[08-09-2010]
Peoples Port for Continuance:
The government is considering plans that could see gateway of England. The White Cliffs of Dover tower is one of the busiest ports and there is a greater need for expansion of facilities for shipping. The White Cliffs of Dover are an iconic part of the British landscape. Local Tory MP Charlie Elphicke wants Dover to become a locally owned "people's port". Running as public corporation, the government has taken over French organisation, which controls the port of Calais. The cliffs and the port are the gateway to England and to Britain.
Celebrity Opinion:
Heroine Dame Vera protested that the idea that they could come under the ownership of another country is unthinkable. She added, “The cliffs and the port are the symbols of the strength and the beauty of our country.” The cliffs are part of the history, signifying the dynamism of modern Britain. Dover is Europe's busiest and most successful ferry port and brings around £80 billion of goods freight each year. She accepted that the lifeblood of the town, providing employment for many of its people. Local communities are integrating to search alternative ways to fund for Port expansions.
Ferry To France:
No worries for travellers visiting to France from England as they will get Norfolkline ferry operator with maximum travel comfort facilities. Norfolkline is now with DFDS to provide great deals of travel comfort for travellers including cheap ferry tickets and onboard facilities. Dover to Dunkirk is always a better route to reach France in an easy way as there are maximum ferry travel facilities particularly with Norfolkline ferries.
