Huntingdon (UK Parliament Constituency) (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Huntingdon is a county constituency represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It elects one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system of election. In the 17th century, this was Oliver Cromwell's parliamentary area. It was abolished in 1918 to re-create Huntingdonshire; that constituency was renamed, after slight boundary changes, to form the current constituency of Huntingdon. The former Conservative Prime Minister John Major represented the seat from its re-creation in 1983 until his retirement in 2001.
