	Local government: Council and parliamentary representation \| British History Online
		Chelsea at first had two members on the London County Council, elected triennially from 1889; from 1949 there were three, also representing Kensington's Brompton ward.
		Chelsea formed part of the Middlesex county constituency, but from the 1830s agitation for separate representation drew strong local support.
		In 1885 the constituency was divided and Chelsea became a single-member borough, coinciding with the parish and later, after Kensal Town was excluded in 1918, with the metropolitan borough.

	Regent's Park and Kensington North (UK Parliament constituency) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Regent's Park and Kensington North is a constituency in Central London and West London represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom.
		As a result, Regent's Park and Kensington North will be disbanded with its Westminster section going into a reformed Westminster North and its Kensington and Chelsea section going into a reformed Kensington seat.
		Kensington will likely be a Tory leaning seat, although one winnable by Labour in an exceptional year such as 1997 or 2001, while Westminster North is likely to be an extremely competitive marginal seat.

		The impact of Mr Portillo's admission on his chances of being selected for Kensington and Chelsea will be an important test case of Tory attitudes to homosexuality.
