I am living in California now. My wife is from Texas. I should become an American citizen this year. I love my memories of England and Wales but Britain is becoming more left-wing and more European all the time, unfortunately.

Correction, this calculator adds the seats in before they pop up below. Still at 323.

323 is exactly half - the other parties would need to run the table from here...
