Fermanagh & South Tyrone extending into north Armagh..

That'll presumably make it a safe Unionist seat?

I can't see it becoming safe Unionist, but I'm sure it moves in that direction (and notionally flips SF to UUP).
Strange, I saw somewhere else someone say the exact opposite.  The move makes the seat slightly more nationaist.

The main change seems to be Dungannon being taken out of the seat; the other areas added/removed are very small. But Dungannon is a solidly Nationalist town so overall definitely the changes move the seat towards the Unionists.

On the other hand, the changes to Strangford (now Strangford and Quoile) are also striking; the addition of Downpatrick and surrounds (and removal of Saintfield) moves the seat from overwhelmingly Unionist to having a large Nationalist minority, perhaps even enough to win on a split vote if the Alliance remains strong.

I think you mean Brexit and the Weald.
