Newcastle upon Tyne Central was a constituency represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament from 2010 until its abolition for the 2024 general election by Chi Onwurah of the Labour Party. As with all constituencies since 1950, the constituency elected one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system of election at least every five years.
Under the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the majority of the seat was included in the new constituency of Newcastle upon Tyne Central and West.[2]
