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.

The Royal and Ancient has confirmed Royal St George's in Sandwich, Kent as the venue for the 2011 Open Championship - one of Golf's most prestigious competitions. The last time the Open was held at Royal St George's in 2003, when the tournament was won by American Ben Curtis, proved to be a major boost to local tourism and hotels across Kent including Folkestone & Hythe.

In his leader's speech Menzies Campbell has attacked the cosy consensus between Labour and the Conservatives and committed the Liberal Democrats to rattling the cage of British politics.
Shepway Council's Development Control committee has granted planning permission to build six houses on a part of Cheriton Recreation Ground bordering Weymouth Road in Folkestone. The decision ignores huge local opposition and local residents and local Liberal Democrat Councillors have pledged to continue to fight to save the park.
