Talk:Ealing Central and Acton (UK Parliament constituency)

succession

Inasfar as the seat won't have the same boundaries as Ealing, Acton and Shepherd's Bush, it surely won't be a successor to EASB. One expects that it will include parts of EASB and part of at least one other constituency.

timing

It would be interesting to know when the seat becomes active. Although it is probable that the next general election won't be till 2009 or 2010, it could happen sooner, or EASB could fall vacant for some other reason. If a bye-election were required or if Mr Brown went to the country, which seat would be contended? EASB or EC&A?

marginality

The Wikipedia page on the London Assembly refers to this seat as marginal.

Very marginal, and a three-way. Only really Watford can boast equal three-way marginality. Notional 2005:

Labour 12,944 (33.35%)
Conservative 12,105 (31.19%)
Liberal Democrat 11,883 (30.62%)
Green 1,869 (4.81%)

Percentages

An IP editor has changed various percentages in this article, most recently including changing the percentage majority in 2019 to 24.2%, erroneously. That majority was 13,300, 24.27% of 54,807, or 24.3% rounded to one decimal place. They've introduced such errors into many articles.[1][2][3][4]

By their edit comments, they seem to think that they should simply subtract one rounded figure from another, as 51.3% - 27.1%, but that's a classic rounding error. In full,

28,132 = 51.33% of 54,807

14,832 = 27.06% of 54,807

13,300 = 24.27% of 54,807, ie 24.3% not 24.2%. NebY (talk) 22:45, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
