Ellesmere Port and Bromborough is a constituency of the House of Commons in the UK Parliament.[2] It was first contested at the 2024 general election.[3] The seat is currently represented by Justin Madders of the Labour Party.
Boundaries
[edit]The constituency was created by the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, and is composed of the following wards:
- The Borough of Cheshire West and Chester wards of Central & Grange, Ledsham & Manor, Netherpool, Strawberry, Sutton Villages, Westminster, Whitby Groves, Whitby Park, and Wolverham.
