Stephen James Morgan (born 17 January 1981) has been the Member of Parliament (MP) for Portsmouth South since the 2017 general election.
After graduating he worked at various departments at Portsmouth City Council, before becoming Head of Community Engagement for the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. In 2015 he became CEO of Basingstoke Voluntary Action. This role allowed him to run for public office and in May 2016 he became the councillor for a central ward in Portsmouth City Council. Later that year he became the Leader of the Portsmouth Labour Group.
On 8 June 2017, a snap general election was called, where he defeated the incumbent Conservative MP Flick Drummond for the Portsmouth South seat by a majority of 1,554 and a swing of 9.4% to Labour. This makes him the first member of the Labour party to represent the seat since its creation in 1918. In his victory speech Morgan said, "Portsmouth had voted for hope".
