Tory Tax Hike For Shepway
Council Tax for local residents is going up by over 15% this year. This latest tax rise by the Conservative run local Councils mean Band D residents will see their bill rise over the £1000 mark.
New boundaries for the 2024 General Election.
From the 2024 General Election, the Parliamentary Constituency of Ashford will (pretty ridiculously, in our opinion) include the District of Folkestone and Hythe wards of North Downs East and North Downs West, in addtion to the Ashford Borough Council seats of:
Aylesford & East Stour, Beaver, Bircholt, Bockhanger, Bybrook, Conningbrook & Little Burton Farm, Furley, Goat Lees, Godinton, Highfield, Kennington, Mersham, Sevington South with Finberry, Norman, Park Farm North, Park Farm South, Repton, Roman, Singleton East, Singleton West, Stanhope, Victoria, Washford, Willesborough, Wye with Hinxhill.
The Ashford seat therefore stretches pretty much to the coast, across an area that in no way could be called Ashford: Ashford and North Downs, maybe.

Local Lib Dems have launched their campaign to win control of Shepway Council on 1st May.
" Whatever were our anxieties about the justification for war, now that military action in Iraq has begun, we all hope and pray that it can be concluded as swiftly as possible with minimal casualties. My thoughts are particularly with our British service personnel in the Gulf and their families at home. I know that we, as a country, will unite in supporting them."
We are so pleased you want to join the team.
