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.
I'd like to thank Kent Highways for suggesting on February 26th that I report the faults I'd observed. They will be pleased to know that I reported them on February 18th using their online system. Given their response to the streetlights issue, I think it's pertinent to mention that the bus stop in that report wasn't fixed by the time the Herald went to print eight days later.
For the second time in two years, there has been an earth tremor in the Folkestone area, with the quake felt by residents across Folkestone, Sandgate, Hythe, Hawkinge and Densole.
Folkestone Town Councillors Bev Rolfe, Richard Theobold, Tim Prater, Gary Fuller, Lynne Beaumont were amongst the trainees on Saturday in using Folkestone Town Council's new "Speed Watch" equipment. The Speed Watch display uses radar to check the speed of approaching vehicles and display that speed to the motorist along with a "Slow Down" message if the vehicle is above the speed limit.
We are so pleased you want to join the team.
