BNPmapsmall.jpgOn PM today two reports which maps can help illuminate. The first looks at the postal district with the most BNP members according to the leaked list. By coincidence we've been taking a look at the data on a map, displayed according to postcode district (the first part of the postcode only). There's a sneak preview of part of the map above, more to come on Monday on Map of the Week.

The key is: No Data =Clear 1-10 members=blue, 10-20=Cyan, 20-30=Green, 30-40=Yellow, 40 and above is red.

UPDATE: I've updated the image to a newer clearer version. There's also some great analysis looking at BNP support and racial tension by Mark Easton over on his blog

As I say more to follow. The other story on PM is about the Manchester congestion charge. Our colleagues at BBC Manchester have been working at mapping the issue, asking listeners how it would affect their travel using the same website that hosts our credit crunch map. Part of their map below. More on it here.
