Alexander David Sobel[1] (born 26 April 1975)[2] is a British Labour Co-op politician who has been Member of Parliament for Leeds North West in West Yorkshire, England since 2017.[3] He was elected at the 2017 general election,[4] succeeding Liberal Democrat Greg Mulholland, who had held the seat since 2005.

He was a Labour councillor for the Moortown ward of Leeds City Council from 2012,[6] elected in 2012 winning again in 2016.[7] He led the council's work on air pollution and climate change.[8] His priorities as MP include protecting membership of the EU single market, and nationalising energy, water and the Royal Mail.

A member of the Jewish Labour Movement,[11] Sobel called in May 2016 for the Jewish community to work with Naz Shah "so she better understands Jewish Life in the UK, Israel and the rest of the diaspora".[12] Sobel is also an Executive Committee Member for SERA, Labour's Environment Campaign.[13]

In October 2017, Sobel was elected as one of the officers of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Rare, Genetic and Undiagnosed Conditions.[14]
