Here you go, mate - everything you ever wanted to know about the Hemsworth constituency and more
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemsworth_ ... nstituency)
(Although it doesn't actually tell you when Wakefield South went over to Hemsworth. Seem to remember Walter Harrison being our MP when aaa worra lad. Ketty must have been part of Hemsworth for 20 years or so now, at a guess. |

Yes its stupid all the Wakefield South ward is part of Hemsworth so places like Agbrigg and sandal castle have to go in the Hemsworth constituency. To make matters worse the Wakefield constituency covers places as far out as denby Dale and Scisset. Parlimentary seats are made up of council wards and they try to get them around a simillar size population wise but they end up with areas that have no significance to anyone.

Used to, we've been given over to Dewsbury now.
Just be thankful you don't live in the Isle of Wight. |

Rothwell is now in the 'Elmet & Rothwell' constituency which includes Wetherby & Harewood which are north of Leeds - I think some one was drunk when setting the bounderies (no, it wasn''t me - I'd have Rothwell as part of Wakefield like was voted for in the 70's) - I think Morley has been put with Outwood as they used to be with Rothwell |

The Boundaries Commision are the ones who really make the changes, politicians just approve them. |

After every election the party in power look at the boundaries and they usually 'tweek' them to make them more favourable.
For instance the Wakefield South council ward is conservative locally when you put that in Hemsworth it makes no difference whatsoever. However if it was in wakefield like it should be it would make Wakefield more of a marginal seat. |
