Statement in Synopsis of results

[edit]

It states in the history section under Synopsis of results that "The Conservative holding of the seat through the First Wilson Ministry reveals that in these early elections the seat was not a bellwether. On the 1974 transfer in power to Wilson again, here the result proved to be a watershed election." Should it not be noted here that the boundary changes of 1974 significantly altered the seat with the result being that it was much less friendly territory for the Conservatives?
