    List of Alternate Presidents and PMs II

    If you're actually going to do the Urban and Rural districts you can't exactly ignore the fact that Shoeburyness UDC was a thing.

    Well, you could try Oldmaps.co.uk, then cross-reference with the various lists on Wikipedia, then you've got to find the old boundaries on the former. I mean given the scale you should be fine doing it very roughly, but still.

    That's magnificent. And wouldn't look at all out of place in a 'France as part of the Warsaw Pact' TL with the various bloc parties.
