Stalybridge and Hyde is aconstituency^{[n 1]} inGreater Manchester that was created in 1918. The seat has been represented in theHouse of Commons of theParliament of the United Kingdom byJonathan Reynolds of theLabour and Co-operative Party since2010.^{[n 2]} Reynolds currently serves asGovernment Chief Whip under the government ofKeir Starmer.

Constituency profile

[edit]

The constituency lies on the lower slopes of thePennines and beginning of the plain below, on the cusp ofGreater Manchester and has three broad settlements, the largest of which areHyde which is bordered by theRiver Tame andPeak Forest Canal, andStalybridge which similarly has several parks and recreation grounds and leads up the Tame Valley to Mossley. The geographic features include the footpaths from both towns on neighbouring promontories, Harridge and Wild Bank. Stamford Golf Club and Werneth Low Country Park are in the seat.^[2]

Creation

[edit]

The seat was created under theRepresentation of the People Act 1918 as a county division ofCheshire. It was formed by combining the bulk of the abolished parliamentary borough ofStalybridge and the majority of the abolished county seat ofHyde.

Boundaries

[edit]

Map of current boundaries

1918–1950: The Boroughs ofDukinfield,Hyde, andStalybridge, the Urban Districts ofHollingworth andMottram in Longdendale, and the Rural District ofTintwistle.^[3]

1950–1983: The Boroughs of Dukinfield, Hyde, and Stalybridge, the Urban District ofLongdendale, and the Rural District of Tintwistle.^[3]

Only minor boundary changes; the urban district of Longdendale had been formed in 1936 by combining Hollingworth and Mottram in Longdendale.

On 1 April 1974, under theLocal Government Act 1972, the bulk of the area covered by the constituency was incorporated into the newly createdBorough of Tameside withinGreater Manchester; the sparsely populated rural district of Tintwistle was transferred toDerbyshire. However, the constituency boundaries remained unchanged until the Third Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies came into effect for the1983 general election.

1983–1997: The Borough of Tameside wards of Dukinfield, Dukinfield Stalybridge, Hyde Godley, Hyde Newton, Hyde Werneth, Longdendale, Stalybridge North, and Stalybridge South.^[4]

Apart from the area now in Derbyshire, which was transferred to the constituency ofHigh Peak, the boundaries remained broadly unchanged.

1997–present: The Borough of Tameside wards ofDukinfield / Stalybridge,Hyde Godley,Hyde Newton,Hyde Werneth,Longdendale,Mossley,Stalybridge North, andStalybridge South.^[5]^[6]

Dukinfield ward transferred toDenton and Reddish; gained Mossley ward fromAshton-under-Lyne.

The2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, which was based on the ward structure in place at 1 December 2020, left the boundaries unchanged.^[7]

Political history

[edit]

The seat was held byConservatives for 34 of the 37 years from 1918 to 1945, and for the other three years by the other two main parties, theLiberal Party (1922–1923) and theLabour Party (1929–1931). It was regained by Labour at the1945 general election and has remained a safe seat for them since then, although sometimes held with small majorities.

In 1945 the seat was won by Rev.Gordon Lang who was honorary secretary of the United Europe Movement and a leading member of theProportional Representation Society but who retired on ill health in 1951.

James Purnell, a former10 Downing Street special advisor, who was first elected at the2001 general election resigned his cabinet position asWork and Pensions Secretary on 4 June 2009, citing concerns overPrime Minister Gordon Brown's leadership. On 19 February 2010, he announced that he would not contest the2010 election.^[8] Senior Labour Party officials were concerned thatUnite was strategically attempting to have Peter Wheeler, a senior Unite official, selected as the Labour candidate, as one of a series of seats, leading to theNational Executive Committee putting forward Jonathan Reynolds on the selection shortlist who, as widely expected, won the election.^[9]
