Ward Paradox

Among the paradoxes around the ward boundary review is that on the existing figures, the boundaries aren't actually all that equal.  The sheer scale of population change in the northern part of Tokyngton in particular indicates that only by 2024 will the population represent enough voters to vote in two councillors.  If there are any delays in the building programme (as things often can be) that may leave the figures seriously awry.

In other words, it is possible to imagine a scenario where the changes make the wards less equal than they are today.
