Is Graham The Last Hyndburn MP ?
They are trying to mess everything about again
One Lancashire parliamentary constituency 'to be axed' (From Lancashire Telegraph) THE number of MPs in East Lancashire could be cut under changes to constituency boundaries |

Re: Is Graham The Last Hyndburn MP ?
oh my ... jake berry should actually check his history .... rossendale and darwen constituency as in the constituency he won ... as only been into being since 1997 .. not since 1983 .. seeing as in 1983 the constituency also covered haslingden .... because the constituency changed at the 1997 election ... ask bernard .. that was my first argument with him .. and he actually ended up trying to be the peacemaker .. oh dont get me started about boundary commission ...

It could be a tactical move this, then Attila has summat to blame when he loses.:rofl38::rofl38::rofl38::rofl38: Attila being the wannabe PMSL.

Re: Is Graham The Last Hyndburn MP ?
All the seats are likely to change shape but I imagine one of the more northern lancashire seats will end up being squeezed out. Who knows, it's up to the boundary commission!

Re: Is Graham The Last Hyndburn MP ?
I think Andrew B is right. The Accrington urban area covers some 55,000 people so there will always be an Accrington seat plus 20,000 surrounding.
Currently there are 7,000 extra in Harwood which was with Clitheroe and 8,000 in part of Haslingden making 70,000. The new boundaries demand 76,000. Mr Berry is concerned about his seat but Darwen in my view sits badly with Rossendale and Rossendale on it's own is way too small at 45,000 plus 8,000 in Haslingden. Jakes view is that he needs another 22,000 splitting Accringtons population of 35,000. |
Re: Is Graham The Last Hyndburn MP ?
If we do have to merge with another area in the northwest, does it have to be an adjoining one?
Somewhere on the Lancashire riviera would be nice. Perhaps Lytham St. Annes. That nice Karen Buckley could apply for the job of being Graham's agent. :rolleyes::D |

Re: Is Graham The Last Hyndburn MP ?
The really serious aspect of all the boundary changes is that there is no provision in the Act of Parliament for any appeal once the boundary commission had decided the constituency boundaries (in fact the bill abolishes the right of appeal against the boundary commission decisions). The new seats will be based on the December 2010 electoral role - and it is widely acknowledged that there are over 3.5 million people eligible to vote are will not be registered.
Also some council wards (and even polling districts) might be split between constituencies. This really does appear to be gerrymandering on a huge scale. |

It's going to get very confusing.
We won't know where we stand, politically, and geographically. http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/f...map-38819.html Slideshow Enlarged |

I have just noticed they have changed the names of the constituencies from the original which was Accrington and Oswaldtwsitle.

Shadsworth, Audley and Little Harwood in and Gt. Harwood out , well I suppose thats 'gerrymandering' on the plus side for Labour , though I expect it will make candidate selection a bit more colourful

This is a link to the Electoral Reform Society's website (it also gives information about another important part of the Bill -individual voter registration)

Re: Is Graham The Last Hyndburn MP ?
Gerrymandering because the only basis for this change is picking a number which hurts the other party the most. 600 hurts Labour, 585 hurts Labour and Liberals and 500 hurts the Tories electorally.
The two Scottish isles get to remain outside of this at 22,000 and not much more because they are Liberal Democrat. The ERS have taken the constituencies and bill and come up with binderies that fit the new rules. For the first time, the right of public appeal has been withdrawn. |
