Newcastle-under-Lyme (UK Parliament constituency)
Newcastle-under-Lyme is a constituency in the Potteries represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2001 by Paul Farrelly of the Labour Party.
== History ==
From its creation in 1354, Newcastle-under-Lyme returned two MPs to the House of Commons. Under the Redistribution of Seats Act 1885, the constituency's representation was cut to one member. Among renowned MPs are two of widespread fame. One of the Josiah Wedgwoods who ran the porcelain producer, who was repeatedly reelected to the seat from 1906 until he was ennobled to join the Lords in 1942, as 1st Baron Wedgwood and campaigned in the US for that country to join World War II and for Indian Independence. Before the 20th century the constituency was often influenced and represented by members of the Leveson/Leveson-Gower/Egerton family who owned in this constituency the Trentham estate - their most important MP was the Viscount Trentham who obtained a Dukedom.
