Glasgow Cathcart and Pollok

Glasgow Cathcart and Pollok is a burgh constituency of the Scottish Parliament covering part of the council area of Glasgow. It will elect one Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) by the first past the post method of election. Under the additional-member electoral system used for elections to the Scottish Parliament, it is also one of eight constituencies in the Glasgow electoral region, which elects seven additional members, in addition to eight constituency MSPs, to produce a form of proportional representation for the region as a whole. The seat was created at the second periodic review of Scottish Parliament boundaries in 2025, and will be first contested at the 2026 Scottish Parliament election. It covers areas that were formerly within the constituencies of Glasgow Cathcart and Glasgow Pollok, which were abolished as a result of this review.
