Historically, Ashfield was a Labour Party seat since its establishment in 1955 until the 2019 election, apart from a brief period (1977-1979) under Conservative Tim Smith. In the 2010 election, Labour held the seat by a narrow margin, but in 2015, the majority increased after a decline in the Liberal Democrat vote. In 2019, despite fewer votes and a smaller vote share than in 2017, the Conservatives finally gained the seat.
