Belfast Pottinger (Northern Ireland Parliament constituency)

Belfast Pottinger was a constituency of the Parliament of Northern Ireland.

Belfast Pottinger was a borough constituency comprising part of eastern Belfast.

It was created in 1929, when the House of Commons (Method of Voting and Redistribution of Seats) Act (Northern Ireland) 1929 introduced first-past-the-post elections throughout Northern Ireland.

It survived unchanged, returning one member of Parliament, until the Parliament of Northern Ireland was temporarily suspended in 1972, and then formally abolished in 1973.

[1] The seat was a stronghold for the labour movement, although Unionist candidates always polled well and were occasionally able to win the seat.
