Cut-back Threat to Flood Defence Funding
The Government has been challenged to protect spending on flood defences and environmental policing after leaked emails from senior officials show sharp planned cuts for the rest of the financial year.
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.

In late June, the Lib Dem Team reported a spot check on a Folkestone Town Centre car park which confirmed the decline in Folkestone - and over one month on, the SAME problems - and in many places the SAME LITTER - are still there!
Traffic wardens responsible for ensuring legal parking in Shepway have been caught on camera parked on a double yellow line in Sandgate! At around midday on Tuesday 1 August, the team were snapped parked the lines outside Riviera Court in Sandgate High Street - an offence normally awarded a fine, but seemingly overlooked this time, by themselves...
We are so pleased you want to join the team.
