My seat needs a trim, says MP

BANBURY: The North Oxfordshire constituency must be made smaller, its MP told Parliament.
Sir Tony Baldry said the seat must be cut as part of UK reforms to create similar sized constituencies.
Mr Baldry said that by the next General Election, his constituency would have about 90,000 electors, where some seats would only represent 60,000.
The Boundary Commission has proposed moving Ambrosden, Chesterton and Launton into Henley constituency, to even up numbers.
