Scorecard

0.2% Attendance The Speaker and Deputy Speakers do not vote in divisions, by convention — this figure is not a measure of anything
1 Votes cast out of 575 divisions
574 No vote recorded absent, abstaining, paired or unable to attend
0 Against their own party divisions where they voted the other way to most Labour MPs
1 Interests declared none at £5,000 or more
886 Debates spoken in 454 written questions tabled

Not ranked. The Speaker and the three Deputy Speakers give up voting on taking the Chair; a 0% attendance figure for them measures the office, not the person. They are excluded from the ranking so that they do not distort everyone else's position either.
