My father was for a long time an elected councillor for a Kent authority not so far away from Swale.
He told me that if you want to win an election at that level there are two things that matter 1) Make sure you have a surname at the end of the alphabet (its where people make their second choice after picking their preferred candidate) and 2) Promise to do something about dog-poop.
Sounds to me like the Faversham Dog Training Centre is a sure fire election winner and no amount of pressure from archaeologists is likely to sway the elected councillors of Swale!!
PS If anyone has seen the remarkable movie 'Milk', you will recall that even gay activist politicians cant resist the dog-poop election issue!!
With peace and consolation hath dismist, And calm of mind all passion spent...
