Glasgow Shettleston is a constituency of the Scottish Parliament (Holyrood), being one of eight constituencies within the Glasgow City council area. It elects one Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) by the plurality (first past the post) method of election. 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.
The seat has been held by John Mason, who was elected for the Scottish National Party but has had the whip withdrawn after being elected, since the 2011 Scottish Parliament election.
As a result of the second periodic review of Scottish Parliament boundaries in 2025, the constituency will be abolished from the 2026 Scottish Parliament election. Glasgow Shettleston will be divided between the new seats of Glasgow Baillieston and Shettleston and Glasgow Central.
