Split this up[edit]

Could we not split this up into say four areas of London to make it slightly more viewable and easy to use? --New Progressive 20:57, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Given it is a stable page and will only change after Boundary Commission changes every 8-12 years then I'm not sure splitting it is really that needed. --Vamp:Willow 15:35, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I don't think splitting it up is worthwhile either, there are a lot of constituencies but the boundary commission adjusts them all within Greater London so any split we create would be artificial. -- Joolz 14:07, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

As far as I understand it, the Boundary Commission re-allocate constituencies in the context of local authorities (for example, Greenwich and Bexley are grouped together and seats drawn up by allocating wards. It would, therefore, be possible to divide London on this basis, but it wouldn't be by any other typical split (for example, Southwark and Lambeth are grouped together, so neither South East or South West London would be ideal) edd 18:36, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Changes proposed in 2016[edit]

As there has been an election since - what was changed by the review? Jackiespeel (talk) 21:48, 20 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing as the review was not adopted.

2023 boundary review[edit]

Is there a better way to list the constituencies proposed for 2023 than what we have at the moment? The 55 subheadings make the contents quite unwieldy, and I don't think each one contains enough text to warrant a heading. I think the information would be better presented in table format:

Constituencies proposed for London
Name	Districts covered
Beckenham BC	Bromley
Bromley BC	Bromley
Eltham and Chislehurst BC	Bromley Greenwich
Orpington CC	Bromley
Etc.

I think another solution would be to simply list the constituencies without mentioning the boroughs, because I can't think of a good reason to include borough information for the 2023 proposals but not for the current constituencies or any previous ones. dummelaksen (talk • contribs) 22:16, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
