Richmond Park (UK Parliament constituency)
Richmond Park is a constituency represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2010 by Zac Goldsmith, a Conservative.
==History and character==
Richmond Park constituency was created in 1997 from two old seats: Richmond & Barnes and a northern tranche of the Kingston upon Thames seat. Jeremy Hanley, MP for Richmond and Barnes was selected as the Conservative candidate for the seat's first election but lost to Jenny Tonge (Liberal Democrat). The seat was held by Liberal Democrats until 2010, when it was gained by Zac Goldsmith, a Conservative.
The area is almost entirely affluent middle-class suburbia with plenty of leafy streets, and desirable late Victorian, Edwardian, and 1930s houses, a majority not subdivided, and with large gardens. The seat has many pleasant open green spaces, including Richmond Park, one of the Royal Parks of London, the world-famous botanic gardens at Kew, and the London Wetland Centre.
The entire seat is convenient for travel by road to London Heathrow Airport. However, northern parts of the constituency endure daytime aircraft noise from most flights using the southern runway, particularly on landing from the east. Such noise is to a greater degree than Putney but to a lesser degree than central parts of the London Borough of Hounslow and eastern pockets of the Slough and Windsor unitary authorities.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Heathrow )〕
