Constituency profile
Sheffield Hallam is the only constituency in South Yorkshire that is not a Labour stronghold. It is currently the only seat in the county that is not held by Labour, and it has never returned a Labour MP since its first election in 1885 and, apart from a brief period between 1916 and 1918, was held by the Conservatives from 1885 until 1997, when the Liberal Democrats won it. This long period of Conservative dominance included all 3 elections under Margaret Thatcher's premiership, starkly contrasting with the consensus within most seats in the county and the other county which Sheffield Hallam borders, Derbyshire.
In a 2013 survey by The Campaign to End Child Poverty, Sheffield Hallam was found to be the constituency with the lowest level of child poverty in the UK, at under 5%.[2]
On income-based 2004 statistics this is the most affluent constituency one place below the top ten seats of the 650, which were spread across the South East of England (including London), with almost 12% of residents earning over £60,000 a year.[3] This measure placed Sheffield Hallam above Windsor and Twickenham.
Based on 2011–12 income and tax statistics from HMRC,[4] Sheffield Hallam has the 70th highest median income of the 650 parliamentary constituencies, with those above it almost exclusively in London and the South East, and notably placing it ahead of Tunbridge Wells (76th), The Cotswolds (92nd), Cambridge (97th), Hemel Hempstead (103rd), and David Cameron's Witney constituency (121st).
The 2001 Census showed Hallam to have the highest number of people classified as professionals of any of the UK constituencies.[5] Furthermore, 60% of working age residents hold a degree,[6] 7th highest and exceeding Cambridge.[n 3]
Until the 1997 general election, the constituency was a safe Conservative seat. It has been represented in the House of Commons since May 2005 by Nick Clegg, who has been leader of the Liberal Democrats since December 2007 and Deputy Prime Minister since May 2010. He won his seat in Parliament for the first time at the 2005 general election.
Hallam constituency extends from Stannington and Loxley in the north to Dore in the south and includes small parts of the city centre in the east. It includes the wards of Crookes, Dore and Totley, Ecclesall, Fulwood and Stannington.
The large majority of Hallam is rural, spreading in the west into the Peak District National Park. It also contains some of the least deprived wards in the country, has low unemployment (1.5% jobseekers claimants in November 2012)[7] and a high rate of owner occupancy with few occupants who rent their home.[8] Since the 2010 boundary changes, neither of Sheffield's universities have a campus in the constituency[9] but it still includes areas where many students live.[citation needed]
Boundaries
Hallam[n 4] borders High Peak, North East Derbyshire, Penistone and Stocksbridge, Sheffield Central, Sheffield Heeley and Sheffield Brightside and Hillsborough.
- Historical boundaries
From 1983 to 1997, Sheffield Hallam consisted of five electoral wards of the City of Sheffield: Broomhill; Dore; Ecclesall; Hallam; and Nether Edge.[10] In 1997, Nether Edge ward was transferred to the safe Labour seat of Sheffield Central.
- Current boundaries
The Boundary Commission's final recommendations for boundary reform which Parliament accepted before the 2010 election proposed that Hallam lose Broomhill to Sheffield Central and gain Stannington from Sheffield Hillsborough[11] which followed changes in 1997 such that the seat has electoral wards:
- Crookes; Dore and Totley; Ecclesall; Fulwood; and Stannington in the City of Sheffield
History
Prior to its creation Hallam was a part of the larger Sheffield Borough constituency, which was represented by two Members of Parliament (MPs). In 1885 the Redistribution of Seats Act, which sought to eliminate constituencies with more than one MP and for the first time allow approximately equal representation of the people, led to the break-up of the constituency into five divisions: each represented by a single MP, as today. Hallam was one of these new divisions. Its first MP, the Conservative Charles Stuart-Wortley, had previously been an MP in the Sheffield constituency, elected for the first time in 1880.
Hallam was regarded in 2004 as the wealthiest constituency in the north of England[3] and was long held by the Conservative Party. At the 1997 general election Richard Allan of the Liberal Democrats took the seat with an 18.5% swing.
Constituency polls during the 2010–2015 Parliament
Due in part to the high profile of the constituency's incumbent MP Nick Clegg, who served as Deputy Prime Minister during the 2010–15 Parliament, Sheffield Hallam is unusual in having had seven constituency-specific opinion polls conducted between 2010 and 2015. Each of these polls have suggested significant changes in the vote share compared to 2010 general election. The first poll, in October 2010, suggested a drop in the Lib Dem lead in the seat to just 2%, from nearly 30% at the general election five months earlier. Five of the six remaining polls, which appeared between May 2014 and May 2015, suggested that Labour was in the lead in the seat by this time, with the Labour lead fluctuating to between 1% and 10%, and one put the Lib Dems in the lead. On average across all seven opinion polls, Labour has a lead over the Lib Dems of 2.5%. The Conservatives came second in one poll, and third in the other six polls. It should be noted that the May 2015 ICM poll scores displayed are those of the constituency voting intention question. The same poll also carried the standard voting intention question, which showed a Labour lead. [12][13][14][15][16][17][18]

Members of Parliament
The current Member of Parliament is Nick Clegg, the former leader of the Liberal Democrats and Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. He won the seat after the outgoing LibDem MP Richard Allan stood down at the 2005 general election. After Sir Menzies Campbell's resignation in October 2007 as leader of the Liberal Democrats, Clegg contested the resulting leadership election and was elected leader on 18 December 2007.

In 2010, Sheffield Hallam was one of a number of constituencies which experienced problems on polling day leading to some people being unable to cast their vote. In this case, voters at the Ranmoor polling station were subjected to long queues and some voters were turned away when polls closed at 10 pm, with Liberal Democrat candidate Nick Clegg apologising to those voters affected. Acting Returning Officer John Mothersole said that staff had been "caught out" by a high turnout, and the Electoral Commission instigated a review of procedures in Hallam and other constituencies where similar problems had occurred.[24]
