| ==Constituency profile==
| |
| The constituency presents itself as a [[safe seat]] for the [[Conservative Party (UK)|Conservative Party]], which held it continuously since 1910 (if including the 11 years by the allied Unionist Party from 1918), and in the 2010 general election, Richmond produced the largest numerical and percentage majority for a Conservative, 62.8% of the vote. The Conservative MP and one-time Party leader [[William Hague]] held the seat from a [[1989 Richmond (Yorks) by-election|by-election in 1989]] until he retired from the Commons in 2015. He had held the posts of [[Leader of the Opposition (United Kingdom)|Leader of the Opposition]] (1997–2001), [[Foreign Secretary]] (2010–2014) and [[Leader of the House of Commons]] (2014–2015). His successor [[Rishi Sunak]] served as [[Chancellor of the Exchequer]] from February 2020 to July 2022 and as [[Prime Minister of the United Kingdom|Prime Minister]] from October 2022, while Hague's predecessor [[Leon Brittan]] served as [[Home Secretary]]. The constituency has thus produced three consecutive MPs who served in the [[Great Offices of State]] and two who served as [[Leader of the Conservative Party (UK)|Leader of the Conservative Party]].
| |
|
| |
| {{update section|date=May 2022}}
| |
| The constituency consists of in the west the entire [[Richmondshire]] district and in the east the northern part of [[Hambleton District]]. It is a mostly rural seat with an affluent population.{{#tag:ref|The latest 2011 census statistics include minimal percentages of [[social housing]] and welfare recipience.|name=Housing|group=note}}
| |
|
| |
| ==History==
| |
| Richmond was one of the [[parliamentary borough]]s in the [[Unreformed House of Commons]] that dates to the middle of its long existence, first being represented in 1585. In modern times it has been an ultra-safe seat for the [[Conservative Party (UK)|Conservative Party]].
| |
|
| |
| From 1983, the seat was represented by the cabinet minister [[Leon Brittan]], after boundary changes saw his [[Cleveland and Whitby (UK Parliament constituency)|Cleveland and Whitby]] seat abolished; however, he resigned from the Commons in December 1988 in order to take up the position of vice-president of the [[European Commission]].
| |
|
| |
| ===1989 by-election===
| |
| The ensuing [[1989 Richmond (Yorks) by-election|by-election]], held in February 1989, was won by [[William Hague]]: this was the last by-election won by a Conservative candidate during the Conservative Governments of 1979–1997. Hague's win has been attributed in part to the decision by the remnants of the [[Social Democratic Party (UK, 1988–1990)|Social Democratic Party]] (those members that objected to the merger with the Liberal Party the previous year) to contest the election as well as the newly merged [[Liberal Democrats (UK)|Social and Liberal Democrats]] (who subsequently renamed themselves the Liberal Democrats). The SDP candidate, local farmer Mike Potter, came second, and Hague's majority of 2,634 was considerably smaller than the number of votes (11,589) for the SLD candidate Barbara Pearce. Despite the [[1997 United Kingdom general election|Labour landslide of 1997]], they did not come close to winning the seat, which stayed Conservative with a majority of 10,000. Hague retained the seat at every general election from then on, building the Conservative majority to 23,336, until his decision to step down at the 2015 election.
| |
|
| |
| ===1992 change in main opposition candidate===
| |
| In 1992, the Labour candidate until a few weeks before the election, [[David Abrahams (businessman)|David Abrahams]], was deselected following a series of rows within the local party over his personal life and business interests. It emerged in 2007 that he used the name "David Martin" when dealing with tenants in his various rental properties in the Newcastle area,<ref name="TimesProf">[http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/politics/article2947099.ece Profile: reclusive Labour donor David Abrahams] The Times - 26 November 2007</ref> and that he had claimed that he lived with his wife and son, though he had never been married. Divorcee Anthea Bailey later told a local newspaper she and her 11-year-old son had posed as Mr Abrahams' family as part of a business arrangement so that Abrahams could create "the right impression".<ref name=sundaysun>{{cite news|url=http://icnewcastle.icnetwork.co.uk/sundaysun/news/tm_headline=how-sunday-sun-broke-first-david-abrahams-story&method=full&objectid=20190644&siteid=50081-name_page.html| title=How Sunday Sun broke first David Abrahams story|date=2 December 2007|author=Colin Patterson|publisher=Sunday Sun|access-date=2 December 2007}}</ref><ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7114500.stm Profile of David Abrahams] BBC News - 27 November 2007</ref>
| |
|
| |
| ===Since 2001===
| |
| At the [[2001 United Kingdom general election|2001 general election]], Richmond became the Conservatives' [[safe seat|safest seat]] in the UK, both in terms of the actual numerical majority and by percentage, the seat being held by [[William Hague]], then the Conservative leader. Although the numerical majority was surpassed by [[Buckingham (UK Parliament constituency)|Buckingham]] at the [[2005 United Kingdom general election|2005 election]], Richmond has a smaller electorate and had a greater proportion of Conservative voters so retained the second largest percentage majority. Again in 2010, Richmond was the safest Conservative seat in the country, in terms of numerical and percentage majority. It has been represented since May 2015 by [[Rishi Sunak]], the current [[Prime Minister of the United Kingdom]] and leader of the [[Conservative Party (UK)|Conservative Party]].<ref name="BBC News 2022" />
