Will it kick off between Pawsey and Wright? As boundary changes means Rugby merges with Southam from 2013

The Boundary Commission report has created a new parliamentary seat of Rugby & Southam from 2013
The new seat will include wards south from Brownsover North extending to Southam, including Harbury and Fenny Compton.
Warwickshire will see a reduction of 6 seats to 5 and could well create serious friction amongst Tory MP's with Mark Pawsey and Jeremy Wright possibly fighting over the same seat as they both lose significant parts of the Rugby & Bulkington seats to Nuneaton (North rural Rugby) and the whole of the current Kenilworth & Southam seat to Solihull and Rugby respectively.
In other news, Caroline Lucas gets a boost in Brighton, where her seat of Brighton Pavilion is being condensed into a stronger Green seat - reflected in the seat now containing 20 Green Councillors out of 22.
