The voters wanted change. They voted for change.
We should continue to implement the committee system because we said we would. We’re honourable people that do what we say. This might be our last significant chance to prove it.
New boundaries for the 2024 General Election.
From the 2024 General Election, the Parliamentary Constituency of Ashford will (pretty ridiculously, in our opinion) include the District of Folkestone and Hythe wards of North Downs East and North Downs West, in addtion to the Ashford Borough Council seats of:
Aylesford & East Stour, Beaver, Bircholt, Bockhanger, Bybrook, Conningbrook & Little Burton Farm, Furley, Goat Lees, Godinton, Highfield, Kennington, Mersham, Sevington South with Finberry, Norman, Park Farm North, Park Farm South, Repton, Roman, Singleton East, Singleton West, Stanhope, Victoria, Washford, Willesborough, Wye with Hinxhill.
The Ashford seat therefore stretches pretty much to the coast, across an area that in no way could be called Ashford: Ashford and North Downs, maybe.
We should continue to implement the committee system because we said we would. We’re honourable people that do what we say. This might be our last significant chance to prove it.
The current regime for enforcing standards and conduct is, in my opinion, toothless. The is no ability to suspend or disqualify Councillors for even obvious and proven breaches in the code of conduct. There should be.
