Is this how the political map could change?

Philip Palfrey of the University of Sheffield has produced some fascinating graphic material to illustrate how the GB political map for what I think is England could change with different swings. Just look above and watch it change.

A key element here is that the map shows all constituencies as being the same geographical size.

He has other interesting material that I will feature in future posts.
