The City of York's economy was previously centred on railway engineering and the confectionery industry, but it is now more of a retail and tourist theme park. Historically a very marginal seat, Labour has strengthened its position as the city's traditional industrial base has been eroded. Labour's Hugh Bayley won York from the Conservatives in 1992 with a substantial swing, and will expect to retain the seat on the basis of current projections.
