| Description |
Norwich is represented in the House of Commons by two very different faces of the Labour party. In Norwich South, Charles Clarke is an arch-moderniser and senior Cabinet minister; while this constituency is represented by Ian Gibson, a former member of the Socialist Workers Party and Dean at the University of East Anglia. Most of this seat is not actually in Norwich, and as such it is the more typically Conservative of the two Norwich seats. Its suburban outlands run through such areas as Thorpe St Andrews, Sprowston and Hellesdon and into the countryside. With its balance of urban and rural elements, this is a key marginal seat - Ian Gibson has a 12.9% majority. The Conservatives made some small progress between 1997 and 2001.
