Having once been predominantly better-off in character, the overall profile of Selly Oak is now fairly typical of the City of Birmingham as a whole, and followed the general local pattern in 1992 with a marked swing to Labour. The constituency notably contains the former Cadbury model community of Bournville, home of the eponymous chocolate. The move in the Labour vote here should be a strong indicator of Labour's fortunes nationally, and Labour must be expected to hold on current trends.
