False News!

Across the journalistic spectrum the Daily Mail article, https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6605009/After-self-styled-Sheik-bought-famous-pier-just-60-000-left-locals-fuming.html, has been picked up, and somehow, in almost every case, turned into "angry protesters protest Pier closure"

The truth!

A group, a very large group, of ex-Pier volunteers, dogs, children and the general public assembled, to demostrate their love for the Pier and the town in which they live.  It was a joyous, positive occasion.

Maybe there was one angry protester, but he certainly wasn't part of the group, and true to the ethos of the day, I won't mention his name at this point.
