History

[edit]

Created in 1974 from the former seats ofWembley North andWembley South, Brent North was aConservative seat until 1997, held by Lancastrian former headmasterRhodes Boyson with initially two fairly small 14% margins^{[n 3]} before the Conservative-dominated period beginning in 1979 which gave Boyson larger majorities until Labour won the seat in 1997. At the general elections of1997 and2001, Brent North produced the highest swing to Labour nationally.^[4] The winning candidate in 1997 was Glasgow-bornBarry Gardiner, the youngest mayor ofCambridge in its history and former academic, who has held the seat ever since. TheLiberal Democrats and their two predecessor parties (Liberal andSDP) amassed their largest share of the vote in 1974. Labour's percentage majority almost halved at the2005 general election from 30.1% to 15.8% and fell slightly to 15.4% in 2010, faced with a new Conservative challenger, Harshadbhai Patel.^[5] The Labour Party vote increased in both the2015 and2017 general elections and then dramatically decreased to a 15.8% margin in2019.

In the late 1980s, Brent North was around 25% Asian.^[6]
