Map of present boundaries

Following the Fifth Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the Boundary Commission for England created a modified version of the Hall Green seat which contains a third of the constituency which existed for the 1997 general election and new additions – the retained former ward is Hall Green itself – and additional wards include two from the Birmingham, Sparkbrook and Small Heath which was abolished at the 2010 general election.

Constituency profile

The constituency is an inner suburban seat on the fringes city centre to its north and bordering Solihull in the east and south. The number of non-whites (64.5%) is high compared to the rest of the city (42%), [8] as is the proportion of social housing (25.7%), with both figures higher than the national average. The area is home to a high number of public parks, open space and numerous tree-lined streets. [9] [10]

A famous landmark is Sarehole Mill, where J.R.R. Tolkien spent his boyhood, and which provided the inspiration for The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings .

Many constituents were employed in the car industry – notably Rover's nearby factories, which have now closed down.

History

Summary of results

The 2015 result made the seat the 28th safest of Labour's 232 seats by percentage of majority. [11]

In the 2016 United Kingdom European Union membership referendum, the consituency voted to remain in the European Union with nearly two thirds of the vote, the strongest in Birmingham, despite the then-MP's Roger Godsiff's pro-Brexit stance. [12] It was thus the most pro-EU constituency outside of Greater London to be represented by a pro-Brexit MP. Despite the Leave side winning the referendum, Godsiff did not vote to trigger Article 50 in the Parliament out of respect for his constituents' wishes. [13]

The 2017 result made it the 12th safest seat in the UK, with a majority of 62.5% of the vote. [3]

Hall Green, on various boundaries, elected a Conservative MP throughout the period from 1950 to 1997, and formed, with Birmingham, Edgbaston, the last of the Birmingham seats during the 1979–1997 Conservative Governments lost to Labour in 1997. This was the first time a Labour candidate had won the seat since it was created in 1950.

The 2015 result saw a +26.9% swing to the Labour Party and a correspondingly much greater than national average swing away from the Liberal Democrat candidate. This was in part due to the collapse of Respect's vote.

Turnout

Turnout has ranged from 83.1% in 1950 to 57.5% in 2001.
