Every time I walk past the West Pier, something else has dropped off into the sea. It has become a gloomy monument to a gloomy period.

Brighton and Hove is for the young and young at heart. We are a largely innovative bunch who might welcome the chance to put up ideas for a new type of pier, better suited to a new city of the 21st Century.

Why not put it to a public vote?
