Too much green and yellow in that or maybe I just reduce the brightness of the desktop!

Could you please use dark Green and Gold instead of yellow? My corneas will thank you.

(I suppose it only has the issue that someone may confuse the Lib Dems with the SNP, but the fact it's Burnley should be evidence enough that the SNP was not elected)

To be honest: I am not just an excited reader of andrewteale 's preViews for (local) byElections - knowing incredibly much stuff for every ward! -, but have several times thanked Him in pectore, that He uses yellow instead of gold, which confuses with red; and also not darkgreen, which is too similar to blue. And the same fits to the colours presented by nyx . (Looking at such "low-energy"-colours lets me allWays fall asleep...)

The number of map files on the LEAP server with that colour scheme is well over 10,000. I am not changing them all now.

Prompted by other threads, I'm reminded I started playing around with assuming the 1918 STV provisions had passed. This is my Yorkshire: My rules are sort-of: whole or combined local authorities to get 3 to 5 seats. I'm uncomfortable with a 7-seat Leeds but can't really see any real internal way of splitting it "naturally". Barnsley and Yorkshire Moors are below my instinctive minimum of 3 seats, but again any adjustment would be messy. I need to spreadsheet it properly, but I think 2019 would have resulted in about Con:25 Lab:21 LD:5 Grn:2 UKIP:1.

Leading party in each 2nd tier district in the county council elections of 1977

Leading party in each 2nd tier district in the county council elections of 1977 By my reckoning around 15 seats which went Conservative in 2019 are wholly or largely in Labour voting areas on that map (obviously slightly subjective criteria so you may have a different number - my list is Blyth Valley, NW Durham, Sedgefield, Bishop Auckland, Copeland, Wakefield, Penistone & Stocksbridge, Don Valley, Rother Valley, NE Derbyshire, Bolsover, Ashfield, Leigh, Delyn, Harlow - I may have missed one or two). Some of these do stray into much more Conservative areas (for instance Harlow) and most have seen at least some demographic change as you'd expect in half a century, but still quite remarkable considering just how few Labour areas there are on your map.

Why would you presume that a map labelled as being from 1977 is actually from 1978? Especially when everyone knows Labour did very much better than that in London in 1978

Especially when everyone knows Labour did very much better than that in London in 1978 Because the London Borough elections were in 1978 not 1977, and because it doesn’t make sense to have a map of London which refers to local elections in 1977, and because it was therefore reasonable to assume that the 1978 results from London were the “nearest equivalent” to 1977 for everywhere else.

1977 was the year of county council elections - 'shire' counties, Metropolitan counties and the GLC. The map shows the 'winner' in the lower tier authorities in each area, as was clearly described in the caption above the map.
