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.
Liberal Democrat Shadow Children, Schools and Families Secretary, David Laws MP, has welcomed the Government's U-Turn on its proposals to impose a 5% 'tax' on school cash balances. The Government today announced in a parliamentary statement that the proposed claw back of school finances would no longer be implemented.
A £7m scheme to upgrade junction 10 of the M20 at Ashford, Kent to allow it to cope with increased traffic from new homes has been completed. The scheme involved the widening and creation of extra lanes and the construction of a new bridge.
Kent County Council's Trading Standards Service has launched a 'Buy with Confidence' good trader scheme.The scheme provides consumers with a list of reliable local businesses that have proved their commitment to trading fairly.
