Everything about Wigan Uk Parliament Constituency totally explained
Wigan is a
constituency represented in the
House of Commons of the
Parliament of the United Kingdom. It elects one
Member of Parliament (MP) by the
first past the post system of election.
Boundaries
Traditionally one of Labour's most secure strongholds,
Wigan was once a mill town (before the mills all around the town closed), and is famous for
rugby league,
Northern Soul,
Wigan Pier,
Uncle Joe's Mintballs,
George Formby and now its Premiership Football Team. In short, a town that has always had a lively culture, and a political loyalty to the Labour Party, despite the fact there's little evidence of social or economic problems. Despite conservative areas in the town such as
Swinley and
Orrell, its terraced housing and council estates (generally much less deprived than other such areas in the North West as well) have always kept it Labour. Which is, in a way, ironic, as Wigan has always described itself as being 'Ancient and Loyal', the 'loyal' of the motto referring to being loyal to 'The Crown'!
