DULWICH AND WEST NORWOOD

Candidates for main parties (in alphabetical order):

Leon Cook - Conservatives

Pete Elliott - Green Party

Summary:

Intriguing constituency as the Conservatives, the Liberal Democrats and most recently the Greens have come runners-up to Labour here.

The seat was created in 1997 and held by the late Dame Tessa Jowell, who was Culture Secretary and Olympics minister, until 2015.

After she retired, Helen Hayes became the MP, winning here with a majority of 27,310 in 2019, and who has campaigned for a clampdown on zombie and other dangerous knives.

It had the third highest Remain vote in the UK in the 2016 Brexit referendum.

Area: This constituency has the five Lambeth wards of Coldharbour, Gipsy Hill, Herne Hill, Knight’s Hill, and Thurlow Park, as well as three from Southwark including Champion Hill, Dulwich Village, and Dulwich Wood.

Boundary changes impact (Thrasher and Rallings analysis): The most interesting aspect of boundary changes in this constituency comes down to points of a percentage. Labour won in 2019 with 65.5 per cent of the votes, with the Greens second on 16.5 per cent, just ahead of the Tories on 16.4 per cent. The new constituency would have been 64.5 per cent Labour, the Conservatives narrowly ahead on 16.6 per cent of the Greens on 16.2 per cent.

YouGov MRP poll prediction: Labour hold

Evening Standard view: Forget about Labour, they’ll win here. Far more interesting is who comes second, the Greens, Tories or Lib Dems.
