Blackman was elected as the Labour MP for Erewash at the 1997 General Election, defeating the Conservative Angela Knight.
She began her progress up the political ladder when she was nominated to the Treasury Select committee in 1997, replacing Diane Abbott.
She stood down from the council in 1998.
Blackman was selected to stand for election for Labour through an all-women shortlist.
