  Erm, unless something has changed very recently, only UK, Irish and qualifying Commonwealth citizens are permitted to vote in UK General Elections, so 'immigrants' (unless, of course, they originate in the Irish Republic or Commonwealth countries) could have had no influence whatsoever on the Canterbury result, or on that of any other UK constituency for that matter.
