David Bellotti is a politician and former CEO of Brighton and Hove Albion F.C.

David Bellotti hit the headlines in 1990 when he won the parliamentary seat of Eastbourne for the Liberal Democrats in a by-election following the murder of Ian Gow MP by the IRA.

Two years later Bellotti was defeated in the 1992 general election in which John Major's Conservative Party was unexpectedly re-elected.

David Bellotti returned to local government regaining a seat on the council. He then became CEO of Brighton and Hove Albion FC, a position which gained him much local notoriety due to his involvement in the sale of the club's ground.

After leaving Albion and losing his council seat Bellotti moved to Bath and became election agent for Don Foster MP. In May 2003 David Bellotti was elected councillor for Lyncombe ward on Bath and North East Somerset council.
