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.
At long last, South Eastern Trains has carried out refurbishments at Folkestone West. Lib Dem councillor Tom McNeice began a campaign eighteen months ago, pressing for improvements to the station area, and especially to the subway under the railway lines.
A recent email sent by Folkestone Town Councillor Gary Fuller, highlighting strong concerns over possible subsidence in Sandgate Road, Folkestone, has received little response from Kent Highways.
2008 marks 90 years since the Representation of the People Act finally gave some women the right to vote. It is also 80 years since women won the right to vote on equal terms with men, and the start of democratic representation as we know it today.
