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.
This event is a photo call to mark the end of a year of celebration for the guiding movement. I have been privileged to have attended many of the events this year and this final ceremony was tinged with sadness at the end of a very long party. The Guiders and Trefoil members however, are looking forward to a little more rest from the constant organising.
The BBC reports: "The UK government has sold the London to Folkestone high speed rail link to a Canadian consortium for £2.1bn. The consortium will take over a 30 year lease on the track and stations." and "HS1, which cost more than £5bn to build, became fully operational in November 2007." http://tinyurl.com/2vcgxyn
Phil Woolas was MP for Oldham East and Saddleworth from 1997 and, until today, Labour's shadow Immigration Minster, appointed to that last role just a few weeks ago by new Labour Leader Ed Miliband. Today, a court judged that he had been guilty of an illegal practice during his election campaign worthy of declaring his 103 vote election win at the 2010 election void.
