And it's not feckin Beijing I'm talking about yer eejits! That reporter feller Glenn Campbell from BBC South East is making a fillum about the China Gateway project and wants yous all to turn up at Acol Village Hall next Thursday 28 August. He writes:
The meeting has been arranged through Cllr Sheila Bransfield and will take place from 4pm onwards. It's really a chance for us (the BBC) to get to meet and interview local people concerned about the China Gateway project.
Sure I hope he's not thinking of putting it to the tune of Rhinestone Cowboy now!

So in the interest of fairness and balance in accordance with their charter they are only going to talk to people who are worried (read opposed ) to the China Gateway.
Actually the producer has already covered the TDC trip to China last year so have had the pro-view, now they'll get the anti-one.
Hope to see you at the jazz festival tomorrow on the eastcliff sister
There's nothing to stop supporters turning up.If you can find any.
Difficult to find supporters for a jazz festival, these days, I suppose.
Let's hope the weather's a bit better this afternoon.
So unlike the BBC to be fair and reasonable, You would have thought they would have represented all points of view. Like the one that we have a massive unemployement problem in thanet and therefore we need low skill jobs to get people back on the ladder of employment
No they support nimby's because their staff are mostly those nimbys. lets raid their pension fund
It is sad but there is always an underclass of unemployables even in times of full employment. These people have no marketable skills and, whilst some are happy to acquire skills useful to an employer, it is a fact that unskilled jobs no longer exist for the rest.
As someone who is highly-qualified and worked in education most of my working life, I take considerable offence from those supporting the scheme who go on about 'the low standard of educational attainment in this area'. Schools work their socks off trying to raise aspirations but get beaten by the apathy of parents who can't see the benefits of an education. I have a neighbour who has six children, lives in a rented house (rent paid bythe tax payer) who doesn't work because he's better off not doing so. Where does the fault lie? With the system? Employers paying minimum wages? Him? Will he get off his sofa and take a basic wage job at Manston? I doubt it. Sad but true.
