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.
Kent Trading Standards has been made aware of a scam involving consumers being telephoned by people alleging to be from the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) asking for personal and financial information. This includes asking for bank account details in order for the OFT "to reclaim bank charges on behalf of consumers".
Revisions and further information for the development of Nickolls Quarry site at Hythe have been submitted to Shepway District Council.
An action day in Cheriton, Folkestone on Sunday 2 September saw Lib Dem Councillors and others battling to bring part of Cheriton Rec back to its best after months of neglect by Shepway Council. The area of park between Weymouth Road and the Cheriton Bowls club has been un-cut for months, and Shepway Council have now submitted a planning application to build 6 houses on the site.
