Reduction to 16

Everything changed, except Newry/Armagh is actually reduced

Likely unionist loss at Westminster as mid-Ulster is merged with East Derry and likely SDLP loss as South Belfast is abolished.

Finally...after years of struggle...armed and otherwise...Derry is united. Northman, southman comrades all...

Finally Ballinderry, Ballymaguigan and Loup will be freed from the manacles of being called "Tyrone" clubs.

On a positive note, the possible unification of Co.Derry is great. The nationalist majority in the county will get the opportunity - providing the proposal is accepted - to vote as they wish, and if that means a nationalist MP, great. However, I am disappointed that Coleraine has been left out. All this does is drag a Derry town into Antrim (spit spit)
