Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Distinguish". Template:Use dmy dates Template:Use British English Template:Infobox constituency Glasgow Pollok (Gaelic: Glaschu Pollaig) is a constituency of the Scottish Parliament (Holyrood), electing one Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) by the First Past the Post method of election. It is currently represented by Humza Yousaf, a member of the Scottish National Party who served as the First Minister of Scotland from March 2023 until May 2024. He has held the seat for the party since the 2016 Scottish Parliament election.

The constituency is one of eight within the Glasgow City council area. It is also one of nine constituencies in the Glasgow electoral region, which elects seven additional members, in addition to the nine constituency MSPs, to produce a form of proportional representation for the region as a whole.

Constituency boundaries

Template:Maplink The Glasgow Pollok constituency was created at the same time as the Scottish Parliament, in 1999, with the name and boundaries of an existing Westminster constituency. In 2005, however, Scottish Westminster (House of Commons) constituencies were mostly replaced with new constituencies.

Boundary review

Following its First Periodic review into Scottish Parliament constituencies, a newly shaped Pollok was formed in time for the 2011 Scottish Parliament election. The Glasgow City Council electoral wards used in the creation of the new Glasgow Pollok seat are:
