Not to be confused with Liverpool City Centre.

53°24′36″N 2°58′48″W / 53.410°N 2.980°W / 53.410; -2.980 Central is a Liverpool City Council Ward in the Liverpool Riverside Parliamentary constituency. The population at the 2011 census was 20,340.[1] It was formed for the 2004 municipal elections from the former Abercromby, Everton and Smithdown wards. It contains the majority of the city centre but also includes Kensington Fields in Kensington to the east and the Marybone/Holy Cross community in Vauxhall. The ward includes the longstanding city centre community around the Bullring, as well as many new city centre apartments. Furthermore, the ward contains the Pier Head and the two larger universities; the University of Liverpool and Liverpool John Moores University.

In 2004 Central was the city's most marginal ward, largely due to the intervention of the hard left Liverpool Labour Community Party. In more recent elections has become safer for Labour. The May 2008 local elections saw Labour take 62% of the vote.

The 2011 vote was effect by the controversy involving the Lib Dem candidate, Daniel Bradley the son of Lib Dem councillor Warren Bradley, when Daniel disclosed that he had not signed the candidate paper, his father had witnessed.[2][3]
