Newhaven Port is now running three ferries a day and bringing more people and business into the town.

Are the people behind the Sandy Beach campaign willing to sacrifice this business for a polluted beach which was closed for health and safety reasons and also has no amenities?

The fight has ended at last. I hope someone told the guy who pitched his table and chair ready for a picnic. It’s not safe.

They want to regenerate the port. When are the people of Newhaven going to look to the future, not the past?

The beach has had its day. Stop burying your heads in the sand.
