Past UK Elections on 1997 - 2001 boundaries

[Harry Hayfield]

This is a map generated using data from the University of Sheffield and mapped using UK-Elect showing the 1950 general election on the boundaries used for the 1997 - 2005 parliaments. Please remember I am just the monkey, the organ grinder is the University of Sheffield who published this data in 2005 and have since taken the spreadsheet used to generate the map down.

The colours used are: Conservative Labour Liberal Ulster Unionist SDLP

The actual 1950 result was Lab 315 Con 288 Lib 9 Ind 1 and NI 12 where as this calculation says Con 321 Lab 316 Lib 4 NI 12 (so yes, it does help the Conservatives in the 1950 election, but we shall have to see about other elections)

Yes, sorry about the map. I was trying to have it full scale (but that means stitching pictures which I am not good at) but I am hoping that the data will be released in a future UK-Elect release
