Description |
BBC Profile:
Labour held the Edmonton seat from 1945 and 1983, when it fell to the Conservatives.
In 1997 it was retaken for Labour by the current MP, Andy Love. At the 2005 general election he had a majority of 8,075, after a 2.4% swing towards the Conservatives.
At this election, the constituency gains part-wards of Bush Hill Park and Upper Edmonton from Enfield Southgate and Ponders End from Enfield North. It loses part-wards Bowes, Grange and Palmers Green to Enfield Southgate and one part-ward of Southbury to Enfield North. To find out what might have happened had this boundary change been in force at the last election, see a notional - or estimated - result below.
Edmonton is in north London, above Tottenham, with Chingford and Woodford Green to the east, and Enfield North and Enfield Southgate to the north and west.
Cypriots, both Greek and Turkish, are a sizeable local community. A substantial number of people are of Bangladeshi, Afro-Caribbean and African origin.
A 110m regeneration scheme for the Edmonton Green and Barbot estates was agreed in 1999, with the transfer of 1,300 council houses to two housing trusts. The development of a new shopping centre in Edmonton Green has been an integral part of regeneration here.
There are no London Underground stations in the constituency, but there are two railway lines to Liverpool Street in the City.
Rallings & Thrasher Notional:
Lab 20,357 (55.92%)
C 10,045 (27.59%)
LD 4,369 (12.00%)
