New boundaries for the 2024 General Election.
From the 2024 General Election, the Parliamentary Constituency of Folkestone and Hythe will include the District of Folkestone and Hythe wards of Broadmead, Cheriton, East Folkestone, Folkestone Central, Folkestone Harbour, Hythe, Hythe Rural, New Romney, Romney Marsh, Sandgate & West Folkestone, Walland & Denge Marsh.
The electorate will be reduced to bring it within the permitted range by transferring out the North Downs area in the north (North Downs East and North Downs West wards), along with the parts in the Borough of Ashford (Saxon Shore ward), primarily to the reconfigured constituency of Ashford.

Local Lib Dem Gary Fuller has reacted with disappointment that Kent County Council are unwilling to act on road safety fears along a narrow stretch of Sandgate High Street. Gary reported the issue to UKIP County Councillor Hod Birkby, who forwarded a Kent County Council Highways, Transportation & Waste officer's response.
