I attended a rally at the Coastguard Station this lunchtime to join a protest against the proposed closure of the station. A short march was held in front of the station, with banners and placards protesting against the closure. A handful of people held speeches, some very powerful, and with the chant "Save Our Station", the rally was closed at 1.30pm. The weather was suitably inclement with strong winds and persistent rain. Our (current) ferry, the MV Clansman saluted the Coastguard station upon entering port by blowing her whistle.
