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:

I am writing again as a matter of urgency to ask how many Post Office closure decisions have actually been changed as a result of residents taking part in the consultation. I will let you know t
