Birmingham North (European Parliament constituency)
Prior to its uniform adoption of proportional representation in 1999, the United Kingdom used first-past-the-post for the European elections in England, Scotland and Wales. The European Parliament constituencies used under that system were smaller than the later regional constituencies and only had one Member of the European Parliament each.

gollark: Elliptic curve cryptography.
gollark: Also, you can. (EDIT: can install Opus I mean)
gollark: <@151391317740486657> If you can find a flaw in ECC I think you could also steal bitcoin...
gollark: If you have the private key, you can generate signatures for any startup. You don't, though. The stuff written onto disks *also* has a UUID embedded (on the more complex ones), which is part of the signed bit.
gollark: The signatures are programatically generated from the contents of the file and my private key. PotatOS has the *public* key, so it can verify that the signature was generated from the corresponding private key.
