395 Votes cast out of 575 divisions, plus 42 as teller
138 No vote recorded absent, abstaining, paired or unable to attend
9 Against their own party divisions where they voted the other way to most Conservative MPs
5 Interests declared none at £5,000 or more

Ranked 254 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.
