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.
If the General Election is called for 5th May, which is what all the commentators expect, only people on the electoral roll by 11 March will be able to vote. That means there is just one month left to register.
Local Conservative MP Michael Howard is under fire from the Liberal Democrats for opposing important measures to help councils protect the local environment.
Peter Carroll is fighting for action to clear up a bridleway at the end of Dunes Road on the Marsh. Peter was contacted by a concerned local resident who told him it was now impossible to ride safely on the bridleway due to collapsed trees blocking the path.
