Hornchurch, in the outer London Borough of Havering, adjacent to Essex, is not really affluent suburbia, but solidly lower middle-class. It has shared the steady swing to the Conservatives that has been seen in this part of London in the past 20 years. Owner occupation is high, and the non-white population is low. It being a bastion of the successful former working classes, Labour will hope to make up a lot of ground here, but the Conservative majority is now so large that the seat is most unlikely to fall to the opposition.
