In area the largest seat in Essex, and with some of the most pleasant scenery, this is an intensely rural constituency. As such, it is predictably Tory, but tends to prefer a gentler strain of Conservativism than Mrs Thatcher's - for long it was the seat of welfare state Conservative R A Butler. Saffron Walden's latest - and very secure - incumbent, Sir Alan Haselhurst, follows the same civilised tradition.
