	Poplar and Canning Town - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Poplar and Canning Town is a constituency represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom.
		The seat has existed since 1997, and covers (as the name suggests) Poplar and Canning Town, as well as Limehouse and the Isle of Dogs.
		Following their review of parliamentary representation in North London, the Boundary Commission for England have recommended the creation of an altered Poplar and Limehouse seat, to be fought at the Next United Kingdom general election.

		The constituency is dominated by Luton airport and the Vauxhall car plant, and it came as a major blow to the area when Vauxhall announced that they plan to close their plant by mid 2002 with the loss of 2,000 jobs.
		Important towns in the rural South of the constituency are the county town of Dolgellau and the anglicised (and slightly run down) resort of Barmouth.
		The town is an important office and retail centre for north-east London and Essex and boasts one of the largest open air markets in the country: in 2000, when the local council refused to fly the Union Jack from the Town Hall, virtually all the market traders flew the flag from their stalls in protest.
