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 welcomed the additional Sunday and Bank Holiday services being introduced by Stagecoach buses between Folkestone, Sandgate and Hythe, but says the changes don't go far enough.
Kent Police are advising elderly residents to be on their guard after a number of bogus caller incidents in the Shepway area.
Strong winds in Sandgate last night on the eve of a recycling collection has shown up the boxes issued to many as "not fit for purpose". Litter and waste was blown from boxes in Sandgate High Street, leaving the area looking devastated and in need of a major clear-up.
