Why are constituencies different?
Each constituency is a specific geographic area represented by one MP in Parliament. Their unique characteristics, like Clacton's links to east London or its older population, shape local priorities. This means MPs must address issues relevant to their specific voters, such as immigration or NHS waiting lists, rather than a national average.
