Constituency profile

Filton and Bradley Stoke is a suburban constituency located in Gloucestershire. It lies on the outskirts of Bristol and covers the suburbs to its north-east including Filton, Bradley Stoke, Patchway, Stoke Gifford, Downend, Emersons Green and the outlying village of Winterbourne. Filton is the site of Bristol Filton Airport which closed in 2012 but continues to host numerous aerospace businesses including Rolls-Royce, Airbus and BAE Systems. Stoke Gifford hosts the main campus of the University of the West of England, which has more than 30,000 students. [3] The constituency is generally affluent with low levels of deprivation. [4] House prices are similar to the national average. [5]

In general, residents of the constituency are young and well-educated. Rates of professional employment and household income are high. White people made up 85% of the population at the 2021 census, a similar proportion to the country as a whole. [5] At the local council, Filton and Emersons Green are represented by Labour Party councillors, Bradley Stoke and Winterbourne by Conservatives and the area around the university by Liberal Democrats. Voters in the constituency are estimated to have been evenly-split on the question of European Union membership with 50% voting for each option in the 2016 referendum. [5]

History

Filton and Bradley Stoke
Map of boundaries 2010–2024

The seat was created by the Boundary Commission for the 2010 general election. [6] The seat was formed by taking parts of the Bristol North West, Kingswood, and Northavon constituencies.

Boundaries

2010–2024: The District of South Gloucestershire wards of Almondsbury, Bradley Stoke Central & Stoke Lodge, Bradley Stoke North, Bradley Stoke South, Downend, Filton, Frenchay & Stoke Park, Patchway, Pilning and Severn Beach, Staple Hill, Stoke Gifford and Winterbourne, all in the South Gloucestershire (unitary) district.

2024–present: The District of South Gloucestershire wards of Bradley Stoke North, Bradley Stoke South, Charlton & Cribbs, Emersons Green, Filton, Frenchay & Downend, Patchway Coniston, Stoke Gifford, Stoke Park & Cheswick, and Winterbourne. [7]

Further to the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies which came into effect for the 2024 general election, the seat was subject to moderate boundary changes, involving the gain of parts of the abolished Kingswood constituency, including the community of Emersons Green. [8] This was offset by the loss of the Bristol Channel hinterland including Severn Beach to an enlarged Thornbury and Yate, and Staple Hill and Mangotsfield, which moved into the re-established Bristol North East constituency.

Notes

  1. ↑ A county constituency (for the purposes of election expenses and type of returning officer).
  2. ↑ As with all constituencies, the constituency elects one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system of election at least every five years.
  3. ↑ None of the Above Zero was a candidate at the 2010 general election. [18] Previously known as Eric Mutch, he changed his name by deed poll to stand under that name. As candidates are listed by surname first he appeared on the ballot paper as "Zero, None of the Above," [19] in effect giving voters a none of the above – if elected he promised to resign immediately. [20] He came last with 172 votes. [21]
