Just some recent letters that have featured in the letters page of the Hartlepool Mail.

No lack of democracy
http://www.hartlepoolmail.co.uk/letters/No-lack-of-democracy.4747224.jp
A letter in response to someone (letter below this one) who was attacking that the decision to grant Able UK planning permission, wasn't taken democratically.

The death of democracy
http://www.hartlepoolmail.co.uk/letters/The-death-of-democracy.4707371.jp
A letter about the decision to allow the Clem to come to Hartlepool. This persons view is that it was the decision of the 3 law lords that granted permission.

Doesn't he realise that it wasn't the 3 law lords that gave the permission, but actually it was the Environment Agency and the Health & Safety Executive who granted permission.

Why I support Able
http://www.hartlepoolmail.co.uk/letters/Why-I-support-Able.4723292.jp
A letter from Jim Allen, Jim is one of the more regular contributors to the Letters page of the Hartlepool Mail and has spoke up for Able UK's plans since they were announced.

There were a couple of letters in today's Hartlepool Mail. But it looks as they haven't updated their Letters page of the website. I will post these letters once they are on their site.

So things are certainly looking up for her arrival. Hope they don't choose a date when Im at work. :lol:  :lol:

Hi ,
some facts on the Clemenceau:-

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FS_Clemenceau_(1957-1997)

She had a draft of 8.6 metres , I think this might be slightly less, but it is atill quite a deep draft for any vessel.

[JonHare]

I wouldn't go taking what is on wiki as fact. Info on wiki is about as much use as it is as who put it on. Anybody can put any info/ make stuff up, on about anything. So just take it with a pinch of salt.

[Brian Cawkwell]

Hi Jon,
I was only trying to find the draft out, and that was the best I got,it is still a canny draft :lol:

Hi jon,

It does say 8.6 metres on here,-

http://www.netmarine.net/bat/porteavi/clem/caracter.htm

but it also mentions 7.5 metres in the dimensions , which could be the draft of her when she is empty of fuel and everything thing else that is not attached to her.

Brian
