Andrew....
The county boundaries are on the ArcGIS data disks (one for "World and
Europe").
The only place I know of for electoral boundaries is the UKBorders
project in
Edinburgh. There are restrictions (just like our DLI), but they may be
able to
get you in contact with someone who can determine if you could be
given some data (limited, as you said). Worse case scenario is that you
have to buy the boundaries,
but you already knew that.

that will give you all the details for pricing and
access.....warning...not cheap!
