Lots of American visitors liking our quaint way of life. Read about our famous  horse trams. The height of their visit, queues of them waiting for this experience.

Oh sorry Mate it's Monday the Famous horse trams don't run on Mondays. I don't care if it is the height of the season, now sod off  and have a nice day. 

We want to be a tourist destination but really we don't give a damn nor have a clue. Well done the tourist board.

You’re right. This is why they’ve been banned from visiting several European cities. 

Not sure. They have been banned from Venice because the ships wash was literally eroding the city. So now they dock an hour or so drive away. Similar issues are being caused in canals and rivers in other European countries so large cruise ships are not allowed. Nothing to do with net zero greenie issues. That said, it would not surprise me if the greenies were getting their own way.

We don't need them...they cause pollution and don't spend much here and certainly don't warrant £millions spending on docking facilities. It's just grasping government bollox from people that can't run a bath, let alone a business...desperate to pay their own pay and pensions.

We do need them. We need people setting foot on island. We need people to be quickly impressed on a short trip so they come back, and so they tell their friends. 

There's a lot better ways of spending £100M to attract people to the island than on a fancy dock.
