North Tyneside was a constituency represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since its creation in 1997 until its abolition for the 2024 general election by members of the Labour Party. Under the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the contents of the abolished seat were distributed to four neighbouring constituencies.

Background

History

This seat was represented from its creation in 1997 by Stephen Byers of the Labour Party, who before that election represented the abolished seat of Wallsend from 1992. Byers stood down at the 2010 general election and his party selected local councillor Mary Glindon as their new candidate for the general election, which she won with a majority of 12,884.
