Medway Messenger: Friday, 17 May, 2013

Good reason for no Gills parade I HAVE been a Gills fan for more years than I care to remember, and I well remember standing in Gillingham Park as the Division Two Play-off Final success was celebrated from the balcony of the Municipal Buildings more than a decade ago.

Changes to boundary are not so minor YOU correctly report that the Boundary Commission’s review of constituency boundaries continues at pace (Medway Messenger, April 16). However, I would be very reluctant to describe the proposed changes in Medway as “minor”. While there was no attempt to reduce the number of constituencies to two as some …
