Richard Burden MP

Welcome to my website. I am the Labour Member of Parliament for Birmingham Northfield.

The website is regularly updated with information on my activities in Northfield and in Parliament. Please contact me if you would like me to take up your case or about a policy matter you feel strongly about.

Until recently, Northfield constituency was made up of the three local government wards of Longbridge, Weoley and Northfield itself. Parliamentary boundary changes have now also brought Kings Norton ward into Northfield constituency.

Working hard for Birmingham Northfield
