Constituency history
A relatively new constituency, formed in 2010, Brent Central was formed from parts of three predecessor seats: Brent East, Brent South and Brent North.
The current MP, Sarah Teather, announced she would be standing down ahead of this year's election. But can the Lib Dems hold the seat?
