List of Parliamentary Constituencies in Somerset - Boundary Changes

Boundary Changes

The Boundary Commission for England changed the constituencies to realign boundaries with the boundaries of current local government wards, and to reduce the electoral disparity between constituencies. In two cases the changes meant that the constituencies were renamed. These changes were implemented at the United Kingdom general election, 2010.

Famous quotes containing the word boundary:

    ““Cursed be anyone who moves a neighbor’s boundary marker.” All the people shall say, “Amen!””
    —Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 27:17.

    “If you meet a sectary, or a hostile partisan, never recognize the dividing lines; but meet on what common ground remains,—if only that the sun shines, and the rain rains for both; the area will widen very fast, and ere you know it the boundary mountains, on which the eye had fastened, have melted into air.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
