Parliamentary
Constituency Area
Population Cartogram
Annotated for identification.
Figure 2.2 On this cartogram every 1981 constituency is drawn with its area
in proportion to its population and touching as many others that it originally
neighboured as possible while touching as few as possible that it did not. Islands
touch the areas they had ferry connections to. Names are added to aid under-
standing, which on a computer screen could have fitted inside each circle, visible
by zooming.
