The 2023 Review – what is it?

The main part of the UK’s democracy is the House of Commons. Every four or five years we elect our representatives to it, one for each of 650 constituencies. Because of population change those constituencies deviate from the average size over time so their boundaries need to be regularly reviewed, and that’s what’s happening at the moment. It’s called the 2023 Review because according to the timetable it will come into effect in two years’ time.

The official website of the Review is here, where you can find information, maps and data. There’s also a semi-interactive map where you can add your comments.
