Glasgow South West is a constituency of the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. As in all other seats since the 1950 abolition of multi-member university returns to the Commons, residents elect one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system of election. The seat saw its first MP at the 2005 general election. Its 2017 general election result was the ninth-closest result, with a winning margin of 60 votes.
