Why must Shoreham go in with Otford. Otford is a very different place and with Otford being so much bigger it will be difficult for a local Shoreham candidate to get in.

The current situation is that the Shoreham District Councillor has 32% less voters than the average for Sevenoaks District Council - so something needs to be done.

How about this as a suggestion.......

The whole Shoreham Parish has 1603 (1101 in the current Shoreham Ward and 502 in the Badgers Mount Ward) and with a quota for the new scheme being 1596 this would equate to the Shoreham District Councillor having 0.4% too many voters. This is an ideal fit with the new scheme.
