MP Scorecard
Jake Richards
Labour · Rother Valley · MP since 04 Jul 2024
Majority 998 of a 69,459 electorate (1.4%) at the last election, per the Members API.
Participation, with the denominator
Recorded as voting in 381 of the 575 Commons divisions in our archive from this Parliament (since 9 July 2024, its first sitting day). An absence is not an abstention - ministers, tellers, paired members and members with other duties do not appear in a division list. The number states what the record shows; it does not grade anyone.
The party record, with the split
Of the 381 votes cast, 381 matched the majority of their own party’s voters in that division and 0 opposed it. Of those, 0 went against a clear party line - four or more of their party’s voters to one on the other side. Parliament does not publish whip instructions, so a free vote where a party splits (and voting with a small minority of colleagues) is visible in the split itself. “Party” means the party recorded against their name in that division list at the time. The split is the record; what it means is your call.
