2010 Parliamentary Election
Note that the constituency boundary changed before the 2010 parliamentary election. The 2010 Labour majority was 3,049 (6.55%) and the 2005 Labour majority was 8,617 but constituency boundary changes make the comparison invalid. The constituency covering Penistone was formerly 'Barnsley West and Penistone'.
