Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Distinguish". Template:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox UK constituency main Sheffield Heeley is a constituency[n 1] in the city of Sheffield that was created in 1950. The seat has been represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament by Louise Haigh of the Labour Party since 2015.[n 2] Haigh served as Secretary of State for Transport under the government of Keir Starmer until she resigned on 28 November 2024, after it was revealed she had pleaded guilty to fraud in 2013.

History

This seat was created in 1950, largely replacing the former Sheffield Ecclesall constituency, its boundaries being significantly altered in 1955 with the abolition of Sheffield Neepsend. At its first five elections, up to but excluding 1966, the seat was won by a Conservative, Peter Roberts; it changed hands three times between 1966 and 1974.

In more recent elections Sheffield Heeley moved from being a marginal Labour seat to having a solid Labour majority. Of the subsequent elections, only the 1983 and 2010 results have been fairly marginal; the others have suggested a safe Labour seat. At the 2010 election the Liberal Democrat had more than a quarter of the vote, whereas the Conservatives, on 17.3%, garnered 3% more votes than in 2005.[n 3]
