Middlesbrough and Thornaby East is a constituency of the House of Commons in the UK Parliament.[1] Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, it was first contested in the 2024 general election.[2]
Boundaries
[edit]2024–present
[edit]- The Borough of Middlesbrough wards of: Acklam; Ayresome; Berwick Hills & Pallister; Brambles & Thorntree; Central; Kader; Linthorpe; Longlands & Beechwood; Newport; North Ormesby; Park; Trimdon.
- The Borough of Stockton-on-Tees wards of: Mandale and Victoria; Stainsby Hill.[3]
The seat is the successor to the Middlesbrough constituency, subject to alignment of the boundaries to take account of a revised local authority ward structure. In order for the electorate to be within the permitted range, the two Stockton-on-Tees wards, comprising the eastern part of the town of Thornaby-on-Tees, were transferred from Stockton South (abolished).[4]
