Glasgow Central es una circunscripción de la Cámara de los Comunes del Parlamento del Reino Unido (en Westminster ). En su forma actual, la circunscripción se utilizó por primera vez en las elecciones generales de 2005 , pero también hubo una circunscripción central de Glasgow que existió entre 1885 y 1997. La diputada en ejercicio es Alison Thewliss del Partido Nacional Escocés , que fue elegida por primera vez en mayo de 2015 . Esta circunscripción también fue la sede del ex primer ministro conservador Bonar Law , que fue el primer ministro británico con más tiempo de servicio en el siglo XX.

Límites [ editar ]

1885-1918 : Los distritos municipales séptimo, octavo, noveno, duodécimo y decimotercero. ^[2]

1918-1950 : "La parte de la ciudad que está delimitada por una línea que comienza en un punto en la intersección de las líneas centrales de Parliamentary Road y Castle Street, desde allí hacia el sur a lo largo de la línea central de Castle Street hasta la línea central de Alexandra Parade , desde allí hacia el este a lo largo de la línea central de Alexandra Parade hasta la línea central de Firpark Street, de allí hacia el sur a lo largo de la línea central de Firpark Street y Ark Lane hasta la línea central de Duke Street, de allí hacia el oeste a lo largo de la línea central de Duke Street hasta el centro línea de Sydney Street, desde allí hacia el sur a lo largo de la línea central de Sydney Street hasta la línea central de Gallowgate, de allí hacia el oeste a lo largo de la línea central de Gallowgate hasta la línea central de Saltmarket, de allí hacia el sur a lo largo de la línea central de Saltmarket y Albert Bridge hasta el centro línea de laRío Clyde , desde allí hacia el oeste a lo largo de la línea central del río Clyde hasta un punto en línea con la línea central de McAlpine Street, de allí hacia el norte a lo largo de la línea central de McAlpine Street, Pitt Street y Scott Street hasta la línea central de New City Road, desde allí hacia el sureste a lo largo de la línea central de New City Road y Cowcaddens hasta la línea central de Buchanan Street , de allí hacia el sur a lo largo de la línea central de Buchanan Street hasta la línea central de Parliamentary Road, de allí hacia el noreste a lo largo de la línea central de Parliamentary Road hasta el punto de inicio ".

1950-1974 : el condado de la ciudad de Glasgow, distritos de Cowcaddens y Townhead, y parte del distrito de Exchange.

1974-1983 : el condado de la ciudad de Glasgow, distritos de Calton, Dalmarnock, Exchange y Townhead.

1983–1997 : Las divisiones electorales del distrito de la ciudad de Glasgow de Central / Calton, Kingston / Hutchesontown y Queen's Park / Crosshill.

2005-presente : los distritos de la ciudad de Glasgow de Anderston, Bridgeton / Dalmarnock, Calton, Govanhill, Hutchesontown, Kelvingrove, Kingston, Merchant City, Pollokshields East, Strathbungo y Toryglen.

Glasgow Central es ahora una de las siete circunscripciones que cubren el área del ayuntamiento de Glasgow . Todos están íntegramente dentro del área del consejo. Antes de las elecciones generales de 2005, el área de la ciudad estaba cubierta por diez distritos electorales, de los cuales dos coincidían con los límites de otras áreas del consejo.

La circunscripción central, tal como se definió en 2005, incluye partes de las antiguas circunscripciones de Glasgow Govan , Glasgow Kelvin , Glasgow Shettleston , Glasgow Pollok y Glasgow Rutherglen . ^[3] Los distritos electorales del Parlamento escocés para el área son predominantemente Glasgow Southside en el sur del río y Glasgow Kelvin en el norte del río, con las áreas de Calton, Bridgeton y Dalmarnock de Glasgow Shettleston , así como un solo lugar de votación cada uno desde Glasgow Cathcart. y Glasgow Provan .

La nueva circunscripción central se encuentra al otro lado del río Clyde e incluye las áreas de Kelvingrove, Anderston , Merchant City , Calton , Pollokshields , Gorbals y Govanhill .

Perfil de la circunscripción [ editar ]

La circunscripción abarca el centro de la ciudad de Glasgow hacia el norte, incluida la Galería de Arte Kelvingrove , las principales estaciones de tren, la Catedral de Glasgow y el Centro de Conferencias y Exposiciones de Escocia . Es el hogar de las universidades de Strathclyde y Caledonian, así como del Conservatorio Real de Escocia (anteriormente la Real Academia Escocesa de Música y Drama y todavía a menudo se conoce localmente como RSAMD) y la Escuela de Arte de Glasgow. También alberga a un número significativo de estudiantes que asisten a la Universidad de Glasgow , que se encuentra un poco más allá del límite en Glasgow North.. La gran población estudiantil es un factor importante en las elecciones, y la presencia de cuatro instituciones que otorgan títulos, así como una parte significativa del cuerpo estudiantil de una quinta parte, ha llevado a afirmar que es la circunscripción mejor educada del Reino Unido. La Merchant City también está aquí, viviendas yuppies construidas a partir de los almacenes de algodón y tabaco en desuso. Esta zona es un símbolo del renacimiento de la ciudad.

En el corazón de la circunscripción se encuentra el río Clyde , que marca los límites de Glasgow Central desde el Commonwealth Arena y Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome y Oatlands en el este de la circunscripción, hasta el Glasgow Science Centre y el Glasgow's Riverside Museum al oeste. Hay algunas áreas desfavorecidas dentro del propio asiento, aunque en su mayoría es un área acomodada. ^[4]

Se estima que Glasgow Central votó a favor de Permanecer en la Unión Europea en un 66,6% en el referéndum de 2016 sobre la pertenencia del Reino Unido a la UE. ^[5]
