Airdrie and Shotts is a constituency of the UK House of Commons, located in central Scotland within the North Lanarkshire council area.

Gray resigned on 24 March 2021 to contest the 2021 Scottish Parliament election seat of the same namet, triggering a by-election, which was won by Anum Qaisar.

Small semi-urban towns such as Shotts (including Stane and Dykehead) were added to Airdrie in the 1997 redistribution to form this seat, the predecessor of which was Monklands East.

Electoral Calculus describes the seat as "Traditional", characterised by working class people with lower levels of income and formal education.

The 2005 changes saw the seat lose some territory to Motherwell and Wishaw whilst gaining part of Hamilton North and Bellshill.
