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.
The constituency of London South and Surrey East was one of
them.
When it
was created in England in 1984, it consisted of the Westminster
Parliament constituencies of Carshalton and Wallington
, Croydon Central
, Croydon North
East, Croydon North West
, Croydon South
, East Surrey,
Reigate and
Sutton and Cheam
. In boundary changes which took effect at the
1994
European Election, it lost the Reigate constituency but gained
Epsom and Ewell
.
