HeadingNorth Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Not this time round. The bill before parliament for changes to the FPTP voting will include measures to standardise all constituencies so that they have the same number of voters in each. You will have the situation where large conurbations with fewer voters than the norm will be bundled up with rural areas to bring the numbers up to a standard. Laudable as this may seem it is a blatant attempt at gerrymandering in order to reduce the number of non-Tory held seats. It's the exact opposite of gerrymandering. It is an attempt to ensure that all constituency sizes are equal. By definition that makes your claim false. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
