Edmonton was a constituency [n 1] in Greater London, created in 1918 and represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament from 2015 until its abolition for the 2024 general election by Kate Osamor, who was elected for the Labour and Co-operative party; she briefly lost the Labour whip between January and May 2024.

Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the bulk of the seat was incorporated into the new constituency of Edmonton and Winchmore Hill . Ponders End was moved back to Enfield North. [3]

History

Edmonton in Middlesex 1918-50 Edmonton1918.png
Edmonton in Middlesex 1918–50

The seat dates back to 1918 at which time it was at an extremity of the largely urbanised London postal district outside of the County of London (1889–1965). It was a railway commuter town core outweighed by businesses beside the River Lea engaged in manufacturing, storage, distribution, and construction industries, among others. [4] Population and housing were significantly less before the middle of the 19th century. [5]

The seat was won by successive Labour party candidates since 1935 until narrowly gained by a Conservative at the 1983 United Kingdom general election. The latter's majority increased in 1987 then reduced to a marginal majority in 1992. After 1997 a trend of increased Labour majorities developed. Osamor's majority of 2015, 37.3%, made it the 43rd-safest Labour seat in ranking in 2015. [6] Likewise, save for a Conservative-leaning ward, Bush Hill Park, Edmonton's other wards usually elect Labour Party councillors since 1997.[ citation needed ]
