A list of puns related to "Hexham (UK Parliament constituency)"
My MP got over double the votes in my town. She's never getting ousted from her seat and she's personally told me she's loyal to the party over the people.
What can I do because I just feel my vote next month is meaningless.

More or less an effective 10% threshold to get a seat. In the Northeast region even much higher as they only have three MPs to send.
(Conservatives failed to get a seat there with 17,7%)

The biggest party tends to get a bonus seat in the respective constituency.
ChUK is a mistake from a mathematical point of view, unless they go for Tory remainers and overtake the Conservatives in the elections.

So, I'm American, but I love studying British politics. In looking at the changes in boundaries of constituencies in Wales over time earlier today, I thought about the question of gerrymandering. Is it a major problem for Commons constituencies in the UK the way it is in many House districts in the United States?
