The constituency of Leicester West, although held by Labour, has the lowest Labour majority of the city's three seats, but Labour should continue to hold. There are several substantial areas of traditional council housing, working-class areas with relatively few non-white electors, which have seen locally significant sales of council houses, as well as more mixed and suburban neighbourhoods.
