Lymm voters set to be removed from Warrington election map Voters in Lymm will no longer elect an MP for Warrington should a new scheme be approved. But revised proposals for new electoral boundaries will mean residents of Thelwall will still be in the Warrington South constituency. The Boundary Commission is currently reviewing all boundaries across the country. Its initial suggestion was that Lymm and Thelwall move to the Tatton ward covering Knutsford and other parts of Cheshire. However following a long consultation period, a final plan has been revealed. It means Lymm will still be moved from Warrington South to Tatton on the electoral map. Thelwall will stay in Warrington South, where Conservative Andy Carter is currently MP. With an electorate of 86, 422, the number of voters in Warrington South is considerably above the permitted electorate range. A new month-look consultation will now take place before a final report is sent to Parliament to consider in the summer. Tim Bowden, Secretary to the Boundary Commission for England, said: "Today’s publication is the culmination of months of analysis and we have revised nearly half of our initial proposals based on what people have told us. We now believe we are close to the best map of constituencies that can be achieved under the rules we are working to. "However, we still want people to tell us what they think of this latest map before we submit our final recommendations to Parliament next year. This is our final consultation and I encourage you to participate in the 2023 Boundary Review.” Objections were received about Lymm no longer being included in a Warrington constituency but also 'appreciable support' for the proposals. Andy Carter provided evidence that 'Thelwall is an integral part of central Warrington, and has limited connections or community ties with Lymm, despite parts being in the same ward'. He proposed that the Lymm North & Thelwall ward be split in order to retain more electors
