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.
An email from Kent County Council Environment, Highways and Waste Cabinet member Nick Chard arrived with Tim Prater today, detailing the responsibilities of Local Authorities, individuals and businesses to clear ice and snow. Tim had always hoped the view that an individual could be sued for clearing snow if then someone fell was an urban myth. Seems not. Nick says:
Major improvements to Cheriton Rec are on the way after years of pressure from local residents, park users and your local Lib Dem team. The park has been agreed as a priority to development after resident consultation and projects are in place to improve the play equipment, facilities and general environment at the park.
Following the successful pre-Christmas launch of Farmers' Markets at Sandgate's Chichester Memorial Hall, dates have now been announced for markets through 2010. The markets sell locally produced food and crafts and run from 10am - midday on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of each month with refreshments available.
We are so pleased you want to join the team.
