We have a seaport from which protesters have successfully removed the legal trade of exporting live animals by sea, and therefore the only regular user following the demise of Transeuropa ferries in 2013. The port is still open but no business is being attracted to it. We have an International sized airport which was in use on a daily basis until closure earlier this year. That's two major port facilities not earning any money for Thanet. These are facilities that most places can only dream of. What the hell is wrong with this place. Is Thanet feeling the effects of the recession long after the rest of the country has started to recover, or are there too many fingers in too many pies for anything to work?
