Constituencies and MPs

Study note

For elections, the UK is divided into areas called constituencies. Voters in each constituency elect one Member of Parliament (MP) to represent them in the House of Commons. MPs represent everyone in their constituency, help make laws and hold the government to account.

Memory tip: One constituency = one MP, elected to represent everyone living there.
