Ashford Parliamentary Constituency

Now covering the Folkestone & Hythe District Council wards of North Downs East and North Downs West

New boundaries for the 2024 General Election.

About Ashford Constituency

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.

20mph zones can cut casualties by 40%

A report in the Independent suggests that road casualties could be cut by 40% by the introduction of 20mph limits in built-up areas. 20mph zones also have strong support amongst voters according to a ComRes opinion poll.

Save Prince’s Parade: Protecting our sea front and the adjacent land

This is a brief journey along the canal and the adjacent sea front between Hythe and Seabrook. It is a journey exploring the beauty, singular tranquility and appeal of this area. Seabrook signals the start of Hythe canal and heralds the long meandering line of defence, built to deter Napoleon from landing. The canal (owned by English Heritage), sea front and it's environs change constantly, opening up a world of differing aspects as you walk along and breath in and touch these very special qualities, it is a jewel of nature.
