Boundaries

Historic

1950–1955: The County Borough of Wolverhampton wards of Bushbury, Dunstall, Heath Town, Low Hill, Park, St James', St Mary's, and St Peter's.

1955–1974: The County Borough of Wolverhampton wards of Bushbury, Dunstall, Heath Town, Low Hill, St James', St Mary's, and St Peter's.

1974–1983: The County Borough of Wolverhampton wards of Bushbury, Eastfield, Low Hill, Oxley, Wednesfield Heath, Wednesfield North, and Wednesfield South.

1983–2010: The Metropolitan Borough of Wolverhampton wards of Bushbury, Fallings Park, Heath Town, Low Hill, Oxley, Wednesfield North, and Wednesfield South.

2010–2024: The City of Wolverhampton wards of Bushbury North, Bushbury South and Low Hill, Fallings Park, Heath Town, Oxley, Wednesfield North, and Wednesfield South (as they existed on 12 April 2005).

Current

Further to the 2023 periodic review of Westminster constituencies, which was based on the ward structure in place on 1 December 2020, and taking into account the local government boundary review in the City of Wolverhampton which came into effect in May 2023,[1][2] the constituency comprises the following from the 2024 general election:

  • The Metropolitan Borough of Walsall wards of: Short Heath; Willenhall North.
  • The City of Wolverhampton wards of: Bushbury North (most); Bushbury South and Low Hill; Fallings Park; Heath Town; Wednesfield North; Wednesfield South; and small parts of the Oxley and St Peter's wards.[3]

The constituency lost the Oxley ward (as defined in 2020) to Wolverhampton West and gained Short Heath and the Willenhall North ward (encompassing the community of New Invention) from Walsall North.[4]

Wolverhampton North East is one of three constituencies covering the city of Wolverhampton, covering the northern and north-eastern parts of the city. The boundaries run east from the city centre towards Willenhall and north-west towards Tettenhall. The Conservatives are strongest in Bushbury North and the two Walsall wards, with the remaining areas more favourable to Labour.

History

Wolverhampton North East was notable in the 1987 general election for being one of only a small number of seats that the Conservatives gained from Labour. It reverted to type, however, at the 1992 general election, when the Labour MP Ken Purchase first took office. It is one of the 'red wall' Labour seats that elected a Conservative MP at the 2019 general election, helping then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson achieve a majority of 80. This was reversed when Labour retook the seat at the 2024 general election.
