As a lifelong Brightonian, I can't imagine the city without both its piers.

But the Palace Pier has been taken over by an outside enterprise with no concern for the general wellbeing of the city, only for their own pockets.

I call on the people of Brighton and Hove to boycott the Palace Pier until its owners stop their effort to obstruct the rebuilding of the West Pier.
