Gilbert McAllister (26 March 1906 – 27 May 1964) was a British Labour Party politician. He unsuccessfully contested the North Lanarkshire constituency in 1935, and became a poor second at the Glasgow Hillhead by-election, 1937.

At the 1945 general election McAllister was elected as Member of Parliament (MP) for Rutherglen. He held that seat for six years, until his defeat at the 1951 election by the Conservative Party candidate Richard Brooman-White.
