Lancashire East (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: What if I have a window open but I wish for it to be backgrounded?
gollark: I find that I mostly want to either put a few things beside each other on screen, which is annoying in nontiling WMs, or have another window temporarily overlaid in some random place.
