1995 proposed changes edit

In boundary changes proposed by a review in 1995, the seat was originally to be abolished and replaced by a new Mid Down constituency.

a) Weren't the changes proposed in 1994, not 1995?

b) Wasn't there also going to be a Newry and Mourne seat (basically the local council area plus the Newcastle wards in Down)? Wasn't this as much part of the replacement?

Enoch Powell edit

I'm dubious about the claim that Enoch Powell had some personal popularity in the Nationalist community that prolonged his stint as MP, can someone support that with a reference?94.168.210.93 (talk) 16:43, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
