Bournemouth West is a parliamentary constituency[n 1] in Dorset represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2024 by Jessica Toale, a member of the Labour Party.

Constituency profile

The constituency includes the western portion of Bournemouth, from the Kinson, Ensbury Park, Alder Hills, Winton and Talbot Woods areas down towards Bournemouth town centre and the West Cliff.

Residents are younger and slightly less wealthy than in neighbouring Bournemouth East.[1]

History

The constituency contains Labour's best ward in Bournemouth in the district of Kinson but, until 2024, the seat had elected Conservatives at every election since its creation in 1950 and was therefore considered to be a Conservative safe seat. However, it was won for the first time by Labour at the 2024 general election.
