Scorecard

40.0% Attendance In the least-present tenth of MPs who vote
230 Votes cast out of 575 divisions
345 No vote recorded absent, abstaining, paired or unable to attend
12 Against their own party divisions where they voted the other way to most Labour MPs
24 Interests declared 16 at £5,000 or more
650 Debates spoken in 1124 written questions tabled

Ranked 609 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.
