The current constituency, a blend of former Liverpool Broadgreen and Mossley Hill, first elected Labour’s Jane Kennedy in 1997, succeeded by Luciana Berger in 2010 amidst some controversy due to her connections. Despite a strong Conservative past, the redefined boundaries encompass more urban, lower-income areas, making it less Conservative-friendly.
