List of United Kingdom MPs who only sat in the 32nd Parliament

General elections to the House of Commons of the United Kingdom were held in November 1922 and again in December 1923. There were 56 Members of the 1922–23 Parliament who were not members of any preceding or following Parliament. Their tenure as MPs lasted at most 361 days, making them among the shortest-serving MPs in history.
