1997–2010: As above plus Friern Barnet.

Further to the2023 review of Westminster constituencies, which came into effect for the2024 general election, the community ofFriern Barnet was moved to the new constituency ofHornsey and Friern Barnet; to compensate, theEdgewarebury ward was transferred fromHendon.

Constituency profile

[edit]

Barnet was once an elevated narrow projection ofHertfordshire into the county ofMiddlesex, and consisted of an agricultural market town.^[4] The town became well connected to central London by theLondon Underground network, and is today commutersuburbia. Many of its properties are semi-detached, and have substantial gardens, with the area having many small parks and nature reserves. The area has fewtower blocks forsocial housing.^{[citation needed]}

Electoral Calculus categorises the seat with a "Kind Yuppies" demographic, indicating well-educated younger voters who could vote for either theConservatives orLabour but who are opposed toBrexit.^[5]

History

[edit]

The seat was held by a Conservative after its creation for theFebruary 1974 general election, and withstood the Labourlandslide in1997 by just over 2% (1,035 votes). However, this would come to a close after the2024 general election, when Chipping Barnet was won by the Labour Party; it was the first time in the constituency's history that it was not represented by a Conservative MP.

At the2019 general election, the seat was seen as an important potential gain for the Labour Party, due toTheresa Villiers' small majority and high-profile (as theEnvironment Secretary), in addition to the seat's vote to remain in the2016 European Union membership referendum.^[9]^[10]^[11]^[12] Nevertheless, Villiers retained the seat with a majority increased threefold, albeit still a small one.^[13] Villiers finally lost her seat at the2024 election to Labour'sDan Tomlinson, the first Labour MP to represent the constituency, and the area, inParliament since1945.
