Tottenham is a London constituency in the House of Commons, held by Labour's David Lammy since 2000. Created in 1885, abolished in 1918, and recreated in 1950, it has a history of electoral shifts but has been a Labour stronghold since 1950.

Initially competitive, by the 1906 general election, the Liberals won, influenced by socio-political factors. Modern Tottenham, significantly represented by Bernie Grant until his death in 2000, then by Lammy, has largely supported Labour, with Lammy achieving overwhelming majorities, reflecting its status as a safe Labour seat and its 76.2% Remain vote in the 2016 EU referendum.
