Electoral boudaries changing! https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/boundary-review-2023-which-seats-will-change/
This site is a work in constant progress and development and is one of a set covering the whole of the UK (index page).
It is part of what UKPEN Ltd does.
It charts the administrative and electoral boundaries for the region paying attention to areas made up of groups of counties, and how they break down - counties, constituencies wards and voting areas.
You can navigate to your area using the drop-down menus at the top right (PC) or top left (mobile devices). Please send any comments or requests for editing permissions to eeproeurnet at gmail.com or ukproeurnet at ukpen.eu.
It's for local groups to use.
There's a lot of updating needed since the time we were fighting to stop Brexit happening.
Now it's the battle to rejoin. It has begun and it's going to pick up speed and strength. As that happens old groups will stop being dormant and will spring to life again. For this resource to be useful, groups need to declare their presence and what territory they cover. We in UKPEN will try to keep track of things by corresponding with our linked groups and contacting new groups that appear out of the shadows and invite them to link up.
To find your constituency use this tool: https://mapit.mysociety.org/. An index to all constituencies in the East Midlands Region is here. In this site individual constituency pages are grouped under three areas: Derby and Notts, Leicester and Lincs, and Northamptonshire (see below). Join your constituency group and start work for Europe! Join your national or area group to take part in events and discussions.
To find out who your MP is, and to write to them, use Best for Britain's easy MP contact tool Hey MP!
To get alerts on your MP's activity in Westminster use "They work for you" https://www.theyworkforyou.com/alert/
