Constituency Profile
The constituency takes in the eastern part of Brighton and the semi-rural suburbs and villages stretching out to the east of the seat. At its western end it includes Queen's Park, the centre of Brighton's vibrant gay community, then Kemptown, the council estates of Whitehawk and Moulsecoomb, and then, beyond the racecourse, more affluent and genteel coastal villages like Woodingdean, Saltdean, and the town of Peacehaven.

Famous quotes containing the words constituency and/or profile:
“Social Security is a government program with a constituency made up of the old, the near old and those who hope or fear to grow old. After 215 years of trying, we have finally discovered a special interest that includes 100 percent of the population. Now we can vote ourselves rich.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
“Nature centres into balls,
And her proud ephemerals,
Fast to surface and outside,
Scan the profile of the sphere;
Knew they what that signified,
A new genesis were here.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
