Scorecard

85.7% Attendance Turns up more often than most MPs who vote
493 Votes cast out of 575 divisions
82 No vote recorded absent, abstaining, paired or unable to attend
35 Against their own party divisions where they voted the other way to most Labour MPs
4 Interests declared 4 at £5,000 or more
1138 Debates spoken in 1018 written questions tabled

Ranked 85 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.
