The Almanac Of British Politics

The new edition of The Almanac of British Politics has been thoroughly revised and updated since the Labour election victory of 1997. It is firmly established as the definitive guide to the political map of the United Kingdom, covering in detail each of the constituencies sending representatives to the House of Commons. It also contains biographical sketches of all Members of Parliament, including the new intake of 1997. The Almanac gives a comprehensive seat-by-seat analysis of all parliamentary constituencies, describing their social, economic and political characteristics. In addition, each profile gives the seat's recent electoral history and looks forward to its prospects in the next general election.
