Voting record

Most votes in Parliament are party votes — MPs vote as a block with their party, so on the large majority of votes Megan Woods voted the same way as Labour. The votes that reveal an MP’s own view are conscience (personal) votes, where MPs vote individually.

Megan Woods’s conscience votes and key divisions this term are being added from the official record (Hansard / parliamentary divisions).
