A final third parliament


As we enter the final hours of the general , I thought I’d have a bit of fun and see what a Final Third Parliament might look like.

Seats are electable if they are within the 33% of constituencies in Great Britain (apologies to NI – I didn’t have the data) least likely to see investment in next generation broadband according to the DCLG model. To make it partisan, I’ve used the results from the 2005 general election as, like eveyone else, I’ve no idea what might happen on Thursday.

While the Conservatives hold power over the Final Third Parliament, they fall short of an overall majority. On the ground, Scotland and Wales feature heavily: (click here for an interactive map – click on a constituency to see the % of red areas not likely to see investment)
