Shepway District Council continue the process of putting in place the Sandgate CPZ, despite over 96% of respondents to the statutory consultation on the scheme being against.
For the first time this year, the elections for the main Liberal Democrat committees are being carried out by a ballot of all party members rather than the electorate being restricted only to party conference representatives.
