Boundary changes impact (Thrasher and Rawlings analysis): Boundary changes have given the Conservatives a very slight advantage in this seat, of one percentage point, to the equal detriment of Labour and the Liberal Democrats. At the 2019 General Election, the result was 59.8 per cent Conservative, 29.5 per cent Labour and 6.5 per cent Liberal Democrat. The changes would have made it 60.8 per cent Tory, 29 per cent Labour and 6 per cent Labour.
