I have finally completed the UK electoral map for next year’s general election for the House of Commons.
I had previously completed maps for England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and have now completed the map for Scotland. I have also updated the map of England to take account of by-election results and the change of Speaker.
Maps below the fold:
Results of the 2005 House of Commons election in Scotland.
Constituencies for the 2010 UK House of Commons election.
Great Work Ben!!
But what about the Isle of Man?
The Isle of Man is not part of the United Kingdom and doesn’t have a seat in the House of Commons.
Hi Ben,
Thanks for this resource, I was wondering if you have a copy of it with towns and cities included? I am interested in buying a map of the whole of the UK with parliamentary constituencies but I need one with the main towns and cities included, please email me if you have something like this.
MAny Thanks
Hi Ben,
How did you go about building this and what data did you use? Is it the boundary data released after the 2007 elections?
I’ve been trying to find this map for a while but there doesn’t seem to be any downloads available. Would you have a copy in an illustrator friendly format?

Richard,
They were drawn manually using the UK electoral maps website at http://www.election-maps.co.uk/
I’m not sure what you mean by an illustrator friendly format, it should be possibly to convert the KMZ file into some sort of GIS program.
Great map! But is it wise to colour independents in purple? Purple is the colour of the UK Independence Party; traditionally independents appear gray on maps.
