Edmonton is a constituency[n 1] in Greater London, created in 1918 and represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2015 by Kate Osamor, who was elected for the Labour Co-operative party; she briefly lost the Labour whip between January and May 2024.[2][n 2] Edmonton is a North London constituency based around district of Edmonton in the London Borough of Enfield.

Further to the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the seat will be subject to boundary changes which will incorporate the areas of Winchmore Hill and Grange Park from the abolished constituency of Enfield Southgate, offset by the transfer of Ponders End back to Enfield North. As a consequence, it will be renamed Edmonton and Winchmore Hill, to be first contested at the 2024 general election.[3]
