Cardiff North (Welsh: Gogledd Caerdydd) is a constituency[n 1] represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2017 by Anna McMorrin of the Labour Party.[n 2]
The seat has been relative to others a marginal seat since 2001 as well as a swing seat as its winner's majority has not exceeded 8% of the vote since the 14.3% majority won in that year. The seat has changed political allegiance twice since that year.
The constituency is to retain its name and gain wards, as part of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies and under the June 2023 final recommendations of the Boundary Commission for Wales for the 2024 United Kingdom general election.[3]
