Covering diverse Birmingham areas, it's marked by socioeconomic contrasts, with high deprivation levels in central areas. Byrne succeeded Terry Davis, who had represented the area since 1983, following the seat's creation from much of the abolished Birmingham Stechford. The 2004 by-election, prompted by Davis's departure for a Council of Europe role, was narrowly won by Labour, making it one of the party's safest seats by 2015.
