Gateshead is a constituency[n 1] represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since it was re-established in 2010 by Ian Mearns of the Labour Party.[n 2]
History
First creation
The seat was first created by the Reform Act 1832 as a single-member parliamentary borough.[2] It was abolished under the Representation of the People Act 1948 for the 1950 general election and split into Gateshead East and Gateshead West.[3]
Revival
As a result of the Boundary Commission's Fifth Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the seat was re-established for the 2010 general election, combining over half of the electorates of both of the abolished constituencies of Gateshead East and Wahington West, and Tyne Bridge.
Boundaries
1832-1918
Under the Parliamentary Boundaries Act 1832, the contents of the borough were defined as the Parish of Gateshead and part of the Chapelry of Heworth in the Parish of Jarrow.[4]
See map on Vision of Britain website.[5]
1918-1950
- The County Borough of Gateshead.[6]
No change to boundaries.
2010–present
- The Metropolitan Borough of Gateshead wards of Bridges, Chowdene, Deckham, Dunston and Teams, Felling, High Fell, Lobley Hill and Bensham, Low Fell, Saltwell, and Windy Nook and Whitehills.[7]
Constituency profile
Under the current boundaries, the constituency is overwhelmingly White, and working-class; with 95% of its electorate identifying as White British and being in the top decile of constituencies for routine work. The area's politics are influenced by these demographics; with the exception of Low Fell, all of the wards that make up the constituency are safely Labour areas, and the constituency voted overwhelmingly to leave the European Union, like the borough as a whole.
Members of Parliament
Among famous representatives are James Melville KC who was Solicitor General for England and Wales before he died, while holding the seat, and international statesman Konni Zilliacus who assisted in creating peaceful bilateral relations during the Cold War, including though work at the United Nations.
