There is no reason why the cables need to go through Portsmouth island, they should go through the harbour and be connected to the mainland at an appropriate point. Portsmouth already has 300,000 people populating it during the day and the traffic chaos this work would cause is unbearable. The island is only 4 miles long and the cable will already have been laid in the sea from France, so there is no point in causing the pointless destruction to the Portsmouth people that do not want it.
