In 2009 Dane Valley had a by-ellection which was triggered by the fact that one of Dane Valley's Thanet District Councillors (for the Conservative Party) was living in another country. The result was a massive swing away from Conservative and big gains for Thanet's Liberal Democrats.

In 2011 Matthew Brown (editor and main author here at Thanet Star) announced that he would with Bill Furness (the Liberal Democrat candidate in 2009) and Tony Flaig (of Big News Margate) fame) be standing as a cadidate in Dane Valley. As of writting (April 2011) the ellection outcome is unknown.

Dane Valley has a community allotment project, a sure start and a woods (Dane valley Woods).

There is a known bug with the Thanet Directory where the category links are not working. This is a fault with the URL parser / builder which doesn't cope well with custom language keys. I did not write it and I am working on a replacement. Everything else should be fully operational.

I've been adding new items to the Directory of Everything in Thanet. Keep the reviews and votes coming in and I'll keep adding items. Message me if you want something added that's not already there.

I've been working on this for a while and now here it is The Thanet Directory. It's a work in progress that you can add to.
