People living in the villages of Hilton and Hatton will now elect an MP for Derbyshire Dales.
Voters in a Derbyshire village have questioned why they are being moved into a new parliamentary constituency with other communities more than 40 miles away.
It is due to changes made by the Boundary Commission in 2023, which reviews constituencies and their voter numbers.Hilton in South Derbyshire has a population of about 8,200She said: "I just feel like it's too far away - has got nothing to do with this area - I had heard nothing about this.
"I don't understand why Hilton should move, this area is governed by the district council in Swadlincote, which is in South Derbyshire," Mr Gibson said.Ms Laird added: "It's pretty disgraceful because won't have the local knowledge and issues in mind - it's too remote, and you need to keep it local.
A spokesperson for South Derbyshire District Council, said it published information about the changes in December 2023 after the Boundary Commission's final proposals were confirmed.
