This means that, in contrast to the position in the last five parliaments, none of
the ward level results this year can be compared directly with what happened at the time of the last general election.
The usual caveats I give for notional
results apply — this is an accounting exercise, estimating what the
ward level vote within each constituency would have been in 2015 (basing the distribution on the distribution at local elections) then reallocating the
wards to their new constituencies and adding them back up again.
