Southend: Prince Charles to present city status document

May 22,2020 12:38 am

Prince Charles will visit Southend later to present a letters patent to grant The Town city status.

It was announced The Essex town would become a city after the death of Conservative MP Sir David Amess , who had long campaigned for The Move .

The Prince will present the formal document to Southend's mayor, and he and The Duchess of Cornwall will visit other parts of the New City .

Sir David lobbied for two decades for Southend to get city status.

Sir David, who had served as Conservative MP for Southend West since 1997, was stabbed to death during a constituency surgery at Belfairs Methodist Church in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex, on 15 October.

Lady Julia Amess will also be given the freedom of The City on behalf of her late husband.

Upon the issue of The Letters patent, an open document from The Queen conferring a patent or other right, Southend will become the 52nd city in England and The Second in Essex, alongside Chelmsford.

Mayor Margaret Borton said: " Formally receiving city status from His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales will be a special moment for Southend-on-Sea, and We Are hugely honoured to receive a royal visit from Their Royal Highnesses on what is sure to be a momentous day for our New City . "

At the start of The Meeting conservative councillors Tony Cox and John Lamb , who supported the motion to posthumously give Sir David the freedom of The City , said it was a moment he would have loved.

Mr Cox said: " One person was responsible for Southend becoming a city and that was Sir David Amess , just as he was responsible for many great things that happened in his time representing Southend West for over 20 years. "

" He worked tirelessly for this, as befitted his status as Mr Southend, but what we would all have preferred is to have him Here Today , proud of this momentous accolade, helping to shape Southend's future and celebrating city week. "

Mr Lamb added: " There you are David, you made it, well done. "

Later in The Meeting letters patent will be handed over, and councillors will also vote to change the name of The Authority from Southend-on-Sea Borough Council to Southend-on-Sea City Council.

Following The Meeting Charles and Camilla will visit the seafront to unveil a new eco-friendly pier train named after Sir David.

The battery-powered trains will take visitors from the shoreline to The End of Southend Pier, which at 1. 33 miles (2. 14km) is the longest pleasure pier in The World .
