Plymouth Moor View is a constituency represented in 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 has been represented since 2024 by Fred Thomas of the Labour Party.
The seat was created for the 2010 general election and is largely the successor to the former Plymouth Devonport constituency.[2]
The constituency covers the north of the city, including industries relating to the Royal Navy base.[3]
2010-2024: Plymouth Moor View covers the northern part of Plymouth. The electoral wards which make up the constituency are Budshead, Eggbuckland, Ham, Honicknowle, Moor View, St Budeaux and Southway.
The remaining wards from the City of Plymouth are in the constituencies of Plymouth Sutton and Devonport and South West Devon.
2024-present: The composition of the constituency from the 2024 United Kingdom general election will be expanded slightly in order to bring the electorate within the permitted range by adding north-western parts of the City of Plymouth ward of Peverell - namely polling districts KC and KD - to be transferred from Plymouth Sutton and Devonport.[4]
