Liverpool Walton is a constituency [n 1] represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2017 by Dan Carden of the Labour Party. [n 2] Carden won the highest percentage share of the vote in June 2017 of 650 constituencies, 85.7%. [2]

Further to the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies which came into effect for the 2024 general election, the constituency was defined as being composed of the following wards of the City of Liverpool as they existed on 1 December 2020:
The constituency was subject to significant change, with the addition of the (former) wards of Croxteth and Norris Green from Liverpool West Derby and the Aintree district in the Sefton Borough ward of Molyneux from Sefton Central. These were partly offset by the transfer of the Anfield and Everton wards to Liverpool Riverside.
Liverpool was subject to a comprehensive local government boundary review which came into effect in May 2023. [4] [5] As a result, the new constituency boundaries do not align with the revised ward boundaries. The constituency now comprises the following wards or part wards from the 2024 general election:
The constituency is one of five covering the city of Liverpool and covers the north-centre of the city thereby taking in Walton, Clubmoor, Orrell Park, Anfield, Everton and Fazakerley. The grounds of Liverpool F.C. (Anfield) and Everton F.C. (Goodison Park), the city's two major football clubs, are in the constituency.[ needs update ]
Created by the Redistribution of Seats Act 1885, Liverpool Walton has been held by the Labour Party since the 1964 general election, and is the party's safest seat by size of majority. In 2010 and 2015, it had the largest Labour majority in the country by percentage terms. [7] Labour has won over 70% of the vote at every general election in the Walton constituency since 1992, although for many years it was looked on as a reasonably safe Conservative seat. Until 1964, Labour had only gained Walton once, at their landslide victory after the Second World War in 1945. Like other seats in Merseyside, the Conservative Party's share of the vote declined rapidly during the 1980s, and Conservative candidates failed to poll in second place from 1997 until 2017. From 1964 until his death in 1991, the seat was held by the notable left-winger Eric Heffer; the subsequent by-election was won by Peter Kilfoyle, who held the seat until 2010. Steve Rotheram won the seat in 2010 after Kilfoyle stood down.
At both the 2010 and 2015 general elections, Liverpool Walton saw the highest share of the vote for a winning candidate in the country, and in the latter election, the 81.3% of the vote won by Rotheram was the highest of any candidate in an election in the UK since 1997. [8]
In 2015, Liverpool Walton was the only constituency in England where the Conservative candidate (Norsheen Bhatti) lost their deposit.
In May 2017, Steve Rotheram was elected as Mayor of the Liverpool City Region and chose not to stand for re-election as an MP at the 2017 general election held one month later. In that election, the seat was won by the Labour candidate Dan Carden with the highest vote share for any Labour candidate nationally at 85.7%. [9]

In percentage terms, Carden's vote share and majority were unmatched by any candidate in any constituency at the 2019 election, [16] although higher turnouts and larger electorates saw fifteen other MPs — twelve Labour in London and one in Merseyside, and three Conservatives in Lincolnshire and Essex — win with bigger numerical majorities.

The 2023 Liverpool City Council election took place on 4 May 2023 to elect members of Liverpool City Council. Following a Boundary Review by The Local Government Boundary Commission for England, the size of the council was reduced from 90 to 85 seats with a change from three-member seats, elected in thirds, three years out of every four, following the British Government instigated Best Value Inspection Report which led to the appointment by the government of Commissioners and the subsequent boundary review for Council Wards in Liverpool which the government initiated with the proviso that the number of councillors be reduced and the predominant number of wards be reduced to single members with all-up elections every four years. The election also marked the end of Liverpool's directly-elected mayoralty. After the election the council reverted to having a leader of the council chosen from amongst the councillors instead. Labour retained control of the council and their group leader Liam Robinson became leader of the council after the election.
Pirrie ward was an electoral division of Liverpool City Council between 1953 and 2004. It and was within the northern part of the Norris Green district of Liverpool.
