Wetherby and Easingwold (UK Parliament constituency)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Parliamentary constituency in the United Kingdom, 2024 onwards

Wetherby and Easingwold is a constituency of the House of Commons in the UK Parliament, partly in North Yorkshire and partly in West Yorkshire. Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, it was first contested at the 2024 general election.^[1]

Alec Shelbrooke, previously Conservative MP for Elmet and Rothwell, was elected as the first MP for the new constituency.^[2]

Under the 2023 review, the seat was defined as being composed of the following as they existed on 1 December 2020:

• The District of Hambleton wards of: Easingwold; Huby; Raskelf & White Horse.
• The Borough of Harrogate wards of: Bishop Monkton & Newby; Boroughbridge; Marston Moor; Ouseburn; Spofforth with Lower Wharfedale.
• The City of Leeds wards of: Harewood; Wetherby.
• The District of Selby wards of: Appleton Roebuck & Church Fenton; Tadcaster.^[3]

However, before the new boundaries came into effect, the second tier authorities in the county of North Yorkshire were abolished and absorbed into the new unitary authority of North Yorkshire with effect from 1 April 2023.^[4] Consequently, the constituency now comprises the following from the 2024 general election:^[5]

• The City of Leeds wards of: Harewood; Wetherby.
• The North Yorkshire electoral divisions of: Appleton Roebuck & Church Fenton; Boroughbridge & Claro (part); Easingwold; Hillside & Raskelf (part); Huby & Tollerton; Ouseburn; Spofforth with Lower Wharfedale & Tockwith; Tadcaster; Wathvale & Bishop Monkton (part).

The seat was created from the following:^[5]
