Biographical history

The Labour movement was prominent in Ealing by the 1920s, particularly in the areas of Northolt and Greenford. Until 1945 Ealing returned one Member of Parliament. From 1945 until 1948, Ealing was divided into East and West. Further boundary changes in 1948 saw the establishment of Ealing North. Local party structure consisted of a General Management Committee and an Executive Committee which was formed from individual members of the local party and delegates from affiliated bodies.

The boundaries of Ealing North have altered greatly. However, by 1993 the constituency was broken down into the following wards; Argyle, Costans, Hobbayne, Perivale, Horsenden, Mandeville and Wood End, Ravenor and West End.
