Jim McLean's Ghost Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 On 29/10/2016 at 22:16, cdisaaccie said: Some of it makes no sense. Hamilton still split in 2 with Lanark & Hamilton East seat going with these proposals. That side of Hamilton gets lumped in with Bothwell, Larkhall, parts of Motherwell & parts of Wishaw in a seat crossing SLC & NLC. Uddingston, Stonehouse, Lanark etc despite being in same constituency at Holyrood as some of the places above would be in different constituencies at Westminster. Clusterfuck. The boundary line going through the middle of Bellshill and Motherwell seems dumb as hell. The expanse of the seat that goes from Shawfield to the back end of Hamilton is mind boggling as well. There doesn't seem like there has been any attempt to keep these seats compact or within current council boundaries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooky Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Well, probably going to need to wait a while before I move from Dundee West to the nicer Dundee East and Angus Glens...But here's a funny take on some of the ridiculous constituency names we have http://www.citymetric.com/horizons/here-are-uk-s-most-infuriating-constituency-names-3099 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedford White Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Doubt it will now happen. Reduces DUP down to 7 seats from 10 and SF up from 7 to 9 on new boundaries. Will be a red line in negotiations I would think. Labour will kick into to touch when they win next GE thankfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenconner Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Probably happened sometime in the 2030s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
