Scorecard

73.4% Attendance Turns up more often than most MPs who vote
422 Votes cast out of 575 divisions
153 No vote recorded absent, abstaining, paired or unable to attend
14 Against their own party divisions where they voted the other way to most Liberal Democrat MPs
8 Interests declared none at £5,000 or more
230 Debates spoken in 213 written questions tabled

Ranked 302 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.
