Tories Dump The Monk
Updated: @11.50am – Feb 12 2022
So the local Tory party has dumped the Monk.
In a selection battle for the 2021 KCC County Elections, Cllr Monk (pictured below left) went up against Dylan Jeffrey (pictured below right) for the honour of running for the Folkestone West seat. Cllr Monk lost, meaning Dylan Jeffrey will be the candidate accepted to run for the Folkestone West seat in the May 2021 County Elections.
Other Tory candidates selected to run in the KCC 2021 elections are:
-
KCC Cllr Susan Carey – Elham Valley
Susan Carey has represented Elham Valley at Kent County Council since May 2005. Susan has a background in transport and first came to Kent whilst working for Eurotunnel. She is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport and has an MBA from Ashridge Management College. Between April 1st & Dec 31st, 2019 Susan has earned £36,250.84 in allowances
-
KCC Cllr Tony Hills – Romney Marsh

-
KCC Cllr Rory Love – Cheriton Sandgate & Hythe East

KCC Cllr Dick Pascoe – Folkestone East
Fly tipping is an offence and shouldn’t be celebrated. You should be encouraging people to dispose of their unwanted waste in an appropriate manner………………………..
Looking at the multiple problems faced by Folkestone & Hythe Council perhaps it is sensible that Mr Monk does not spread himself too thinly and devotes his attention to local concerns.
I was not at the meeting so I cannot offer an opinion but, does this vote signify that party members might have concerns about Mr Monk’s performance? Perhaps you should make further enquiries of those who attended and voted.
Pleased to see Mr Monk ousted, he has been an ignorant man with regards to his views on Otterpool, has caused insult to many residents. I too would like to know the reasons they have voted him out.
Why does the Tory Party always bring in people from outside the district to stand? They DO NOT understand what local people require to live our lives. Any person standing should have lived in the area for at least ten years, as then they’ll understand our way of life
