Boundaries
Situated to the south west of Birmingham city centre, this is a neat and mostly middle-class constituency, with parks, Warwickshire's cricket ground and two grammar schools. It was a safe Conservative seat for decades, but some areas have pockets of considerable deprivation, helping Labour hold the seat since 1997. It contains the University of Birmingham's main campus, and most of the student halls.
