Swansea West (Welsh: Gorllewin Abertawe) is a constituency[n 1] of the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It elects one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system of election, and is currently represented by Torsten Bell of Labour, who was first elected in the constituency in 2024.
Alan Williams represented the seat for the Labour Party from 1964 until his retirement in 2010; from 2005 until his retirement he was the Father of the House.
In the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies for the 2024 United Kingdom general election, the constituencies boundaries were altered.[2] The Senedd constituency of the same name currently has the constituency's borders as they existed before 2024.
