Scorecard

87.5% Attendance Turns up more often than most MPs who vote
503 Votes cast out of 575 divisions
72 No vote recorded absent, abstaining, paired or unable to attend
10 Against their own party divisions where they voted the other way to most Labour MPs
6 Interests declared none at £5,000 or more
96 Debates spoken in 12 written questions tabled

Ranked 58 of 638 MPs for attendance. The median of MPs who vote is 72.3%. Ministers and front-benchers vote less often than backbenchers for reasons of office rather than absenteeism, and Parliament does not publish reasons for any absence — the ranking is a starting point for a question, not an answer to one.
