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.
"Have fun but stay safe" is the message from Kent Fire and Rescue Service (KFRS) as the firework and bonfire season draws closer. Last November KFRS saw a 59 per cent increase in attendance to fires caused by fireworks compared to the previous year, and nearly double the amount of bonfire incidents.
According to research web site www.petrolprices.com the average cost of a litre of unleaded petrol in Folkestone has dropped back through the £1 barrier, and is now 99.9p, with a number of stations selling it for less, and both Sainsbury's and Tesco offering fuel discounts to customers in their stores.
The economic crisis means everyone's worried about the future, and many are struggling to get by from day to day. The banks have been bailed out. I believe now it's time for action to help people and their families through these tough times.
