It is good that we are now able to unlock the doors to our hospitality sector and to welcome visitors back to the East Kent seaside. So long as we still use our common sense, to ensure that we are keeping the spread of COVID to the minimum Margate and Herne Bay ought to still be able to enjoy a Summer Holiday season safely and confidently. Decisions like this have to be taken so that our economy can recover people in the hospitality businesses can get back to work. Time to shake out the “Welcome” mat again!
