Wirral to lose one MP as battle lines for next general election redrawn

Wirral would lose one MP in planned changes to Parliamentary constituencies across the country.

Proposals from the Boundary Commission for England (BCE) would see the number of seats in the Wirral reduced from four to three because of the number of voters in the area.

Wirral South, which is currently represented by Alison McGovern, could be divided into Wirral West and Ellesmere Port with most becoming part of Wirral West. Birkenhead and Wallasey will continue to exist though there will be some changes to the boundaries.
